In this paper, we propose SPRITE (Selective PRogressive Index Tuning by Examples), a scalable system for text retrieval in a structured P2P network. Under SPRITE, each peer is res...
This paper presents a new architecture of neural networks designed for pattern recognition. The concept of induction graphs coupled with a divide-and-conquer strategy defines a Gr...
In this paper we present an efficient, scalable and general algorithm for performing set joins on predicates involving various similarity measures like intersect size, Jaccard-coe...
Content based search in audio-visual collections requires media specific analysis for extracting low level features to be efficiently indexed and searched. We present the SAPIR ...
