Existing estimation approaches for spatial databases often rely on the assumption that data distribution in a small region is uniform, which seldom holds in practice. Moreover, the...
A very important class of queries in GIS applications is the class of K-Nearest Neighbor queries. Most of the current studies on the K-Nearest Neighbor queries utilize spatial ind...

We investigate the optimality of (1+ )-approximation algorithms obtained via the dimensionality reduction method. We show that: • Any data structure for the (1 + )-approximate n...
