This paper proposes a digital watermarking algorithm for 2D vector digital maps. The watermark is a robust, informed-detection watermark to be used to prevent such abuses as an in...
In this paper, we propose a semantic-meaningful approach for region-based image retrieval in image database. Our retrieval system is based on wavelet transform for its decompositi...
Several time series matching techniques have been proposed for content-based music retrieval. These techniques represent a melody by a time series of pitch values and use time war...
We investigate the use of the multistep successive preconditioning strategies (MSP) to construct a class of parallel multilevel sparse approximate inverse (SAI) preconditioners. W...
Resource selection is an important topic in distributed information retrieval research. It can be a component of a distributed information retrieval task and can also serve as an i...
