Query expansion terms are often used to enhance original query formulations in document retrieval. Such terms are usually selected from the entire documents or from windows or pas...
Abstract In case of insufficient data samples in highdimensional classification problems, sparse scatters of samples tend to have many ‘holes’—regions that have few or no nea...

In a mobile service scenario, users query a server for nearby points of interest but they may not want to disclose their locations to the service. Intuitively, location privacy may...

To learn a metric for query?based operations, we combine the concept underlying manifold learning algorithms and the minimum volume ellipsoid metric in a unified algorithm to find...
In this paper we propose the use of fractals and especially the Hilbert curve, in order to design good distance-preserving mappings. Such mappings improve the performance of secon...
