To enable efficient similarity search in large databases, many indexing techniques use a linear transformation scheme to reduce dimensions and allow fast approximation. In this re...
We present a multi-dimensional indexing approach for fast sequence similarity search in DNA and protein databases. In particular, we propose effective transformations of subsequen...
Multimedia similarity search has been playing a critical role in many novel applications. Typically, multimedia objects are described by high-dimensional feature vectors (or point...
