R-tree data structures are widely used in spatial databases to store, manage and manipulate spatial information. As the data volume of such databases is typically very large, the q...

As sensor networks increase in size and number, efficient techniques are required to process the very large data sets that they generate. Frequently, sensor networks monitor object...
The technique of Finite Markov Chain Imbedding (FMCI) is a classical approach to complex combinatorial problems related to sequences. In order to get efficient algorithms, it is k...
One of the main reasons for using parallel evolutionary algorithms (PEAs) is to obtain efficient algorithms with an execution time much lower than that of their sequential counter...
Active contours were proposed by Kass et al. as a way to represent the contours of an image. Although the method is simple, one of its shortcomings is its inability to converge in...
