Biologists highly rely on good algorithms for finding homologous regions in bimolecular sequences. An advanced homology search program named PatternHunter has recently been develo...
A Messy Genetic Algorithm is customized toflnd'optimal many-to-many matches for 2D line segment models. The Messy GA is a variant upon the Standard Genetic Algorithm in which...
We study the expressiveness and performance of full-text search languages. Our main motivation is to provide a formal basis for comparing such languages and to develop a model for...
The class of k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) queries is frequently used in geospatial applications. Many studies focus on processing kNN in Euclidean and road network spaces. Meanwhile, ...
This paper explores the idea of using contexts to support more efficient information search in Topic Maps-based digital libraries. The notion of context is d as abstraction of grou...
