This work addresses a novel spatial keyword query called the m-closest keywords (mCK) query. Given a database of spatial objects, each tuple is associated with some descriptive inf...
An extension of single-view scalable video coding to multiview is presented in this paper. Scalable video coding is recently developed in the Joint Video Team of ISO/IEC MPEG and ...
We describe a new invariant-based data model for image databases under our approach for shape-based retrieval. The data model relies on contours description of the image shape, an...
We propose an algorithm to find piecewise linear skeletons of hand-written characters by using principal curves. The development of the method was inspired by the apparent similar...
