Background: Protein structural data has increased exponentially, such that fast and accurate tools are necessary to access structure similarity search. To improve the search speed...
M-tree is a dynamic access method suitable to index generic “metric spaces”, where the function used to compute the distance between any two objects satisfies the positivity, ...

Similarity search methods are widely used as kernels in various data mining and machine learning applications including those in computational biology, web search/clustering. Near...
—We investigate the problem of retrieving similar shapes from a large database; in particular, we focus on medical tumor shapes (“Find tumors that are similar to a given patter...
We present a method for searching in an image database using a query image that is similar to the intended target. The query image may be a hand-drawn sketch or a (potentially low...
