We describe a recursive algorithm to quickly compute the N nearest neighbors according to a similarity measure in a metric space. The algorithm exploits an intrinsic property of a...
Service discovery is a key concept in a distributed Grid environment. The first step towards Grid implement is the discovery of services. In this paper, we build a new Grid servic...
Voting (or rank aggregation) is a general method for aggregating the preferences of multiple agents. One important voting rule is the Slater rule. It selects a ranking of the alte...
Background: Microarray experiments measure changes in the expression of thousands of genes. The resulting lists of genes with changes in expression are then searched for biologica...
Similarity search has been proved suitable for searching in very large collections of unstructured data objects. We are interested in efficient parallel query processing under si...
