Let a tuple of n objects obeying a query graph (QG) be called the n-tuple. The “Ddistance-value” of this n-tuple is the value of a linear function of distances of the n objects...

This paper presents a novel approach for estimating the shortest
Euclidean distance from a given point to the corresponding
implicit quadric fitting surface. It first estimates t...
—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 , ...
We introduce an algorithm for learning a local metric to a continuous input space that measures distances in terms of relevance to the processing task. The relevance is defined a...
Euclidean distance measure has been used in comparing feature vectors of images, while cosine angle distance measure is used in document retrieval. In this paper, we theoretically...
