This paper compares several indexing methods for person names extracted from text, developed for an information retrieval system with requirements for fast approximate matching of...
In many modern applications such as biometric identification systems, sensor networks, medical imaging, geology, and multimedia databases, the data objects are not described exact...
Abstract. In order to effectively and quickly answer queries in environments with distributed RDF/OWL, we present a query optimization algorithm to identify the potentially relevan...
The indexing technique commonly used for long strings, such as genomes, is the suffix tree, which is based on a vertical (intra-path) compaction of the underlying trie structure. ...
A novel indexing and access method, called Affinity Hybrid Tree (AH-Tree), is proposed to organize large image data sets efficiently and to support popular image access mechanisms...
