Abstract--We propose an automatic method for measuring content-based music similarity, enhancing the current generation of music search engines and recommender systems. Many previo...
Selectivity estimation is an important step of query optimization in a database management system, and multidimensional histogram techniques have proved promising for selectivity ...
Nearest neighbor queries are important in many settings, including spatial databases (Find the k closest cities) and multimedia databases (Find the k most similar images). Previou...
We consider the problem of collectively approximating a set of sensor signals using the least amount of space so that any individual signal can be efficiently reconstructed within...
This paper evaluates the performance of the parallel, main-memory DBMS, PRISMA/DB. First, an architecture for parallel query execution is presented. A performance model for the ex...
