In peer-to-peer networks, indices are used to map data to nodes that host the data. The performance of data access can be improved by actively pushing indices to interested nodes....
This paper presents a strategy for shape-based image retrieval in which moment invariants form a feature vector to describe the shape of an object. Fuzzy k-means clustering is use...
Abstract--Many representation schemes have been proposed to deal with non-manifold and mixed dimensionalities objects. A majority of those models are based on incidence graphs and ...
The quantum adversary method is one of the most successful techniques for proving lower bounds on quantum query complexity. It gives optimal lower bounds for many problems, has ap...
This paper considers the problem of predictive fusion coding for storage of multiple spatio-temporally correlated sources so as to enable efficient selective retrieval of data fr...
