—In a sensor network, data routing is tightly coupled to the needs of a sensing task, and hence the application semantics. This paper introduces the novel idea of information-dir...
The goal of this work is to integrate query similarity metrics as features into a dense model that can be trained on large amounts of query log data, in order to rank query rewrit...

Given a query point p, typically the position of a current client, and two datasets S and R, a transitive nearest neighbor (TNN) search returns a pair of objects (s, r) ∈ S × R...
An important direction in database research for non-standard applications (e.g. engineering or design applications) deals with adequate support for complex objects. Without doubt,...
In this paper, we propose a novel method to localize (or track) a foreground object and segment the foreground object from the surrounding background with occlusions for a moving ...
