We compare different statistical characterizations of a set of strings, for three different histogram-based distances. Given a distance, a set of strings may be characterized by it...
To enable information integration, schema matching is a critical step for discovering semantic correspondences of attributes across heterogeneous sources. As a new attempt, this p...
—We present a new access method, called the path dictionary index (PDI) method, for supporting nested queries on object-oriented databases. PDI supports object traversal and asso...
—In reality, spatial objects (e.g., hotels) not only have spatial locations but also have quality attributes (e.g., price, star). An object p is said to dominate another one p , ...
