Metric access methods (MAMs) serve as a tool for speeding similarity queries. However, all MAMs developed so far are index-based; they need to build an index on a given database. T...
Adaptable similarity queries based on quadratic form distance functions are widely popular in data mining applications, particularly for domains such as multimedia, CAD, molecular ...
Comparative analysis of metabolic pathways in different genomes can give insights into the understanding of evolutionary and organizational relationships among species. This type ...
