The success of popular algorithms such as k-means clustering or nearest neighbor searches depend on the assumption that the underlying distance functions reflect domain-specific n...
Record label companies would like to identify potential artists as early as possible in their careers, before other companies approach the artists with competing contracts. The va...
Time-series of count data are generated in many different contexts, such as web access logging, freeway traffic monitoring, and security logs associated with buildings. Since this...
Calculation of object similarity, for example through a distance function, is a common part of data mining and machine learning algorithms. This calculation is crucial for efficie...
Although most time-series data mining research has concentrated on providing solutions for a single distance function, in this work we motivate the need for a single index structu...
