In this paper, we study a new type of spatial query, Nearest Surrounder (NS), which searches the nearest surrounding spatial objects around a query point. NS query can be more use...
Handling streams of positional updates from numerous moving objects has become a challenging task for many monitoring applications. Several algorithms have been recently proposed ...
Given a set of n query points in a general metric space, a metricspace skyline (MSS) query asks what are the closest points to all these query points in the database. Here, consid...
We present a tree data structure for fast
nearest neighbor operations in general n-
point metric spaces (where the data set con-
sists of n points). The data structure re-
quir...
Hashing, which tries to learn similarity-preserving binary codes for data representation, has been widely used for efficient nearest neighbor search in massive databases due to i...
