Efficient user-adaptable similarity search more and more increases in its importance for multimedia and spatial database systems. As a general similarity model for multi-dimension...
So far, an efficient similarity search in multimedia databases has been carried out by metric access methods (MAMs), where the utilized similarity measure had to satisfy the metric...
We address the problem of building an index for a set D of n strings, where each string location is a subset of some finite integer alphabet of size , so that we can answer effici...
