We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...
Searching and extracting meaningful information out of highly heterogeneous datasets is a hot topic that received a lot of attention. However, the existing solutions are based on e...
In this paper, we propose a versatile disambiguation approach which can be used to make explicit the meaning of structure based information such as XML schemas, XML document struc...
Several ways of using singular value decomposition (SVD), a linear algebra technique typically used for information retrieval, to decompose problems into subproblems are investiga...
Search engines represent a key component of Web economy these days. Despite that, there is not much technical literature available on their design, fine tuning, and internal oper...
