In this paper, an interactive image retrieval scheme using MPEG-7 visual descriptors is proposed. The performance of image retrieval systems is still limited due to semantic gap, w...
In this paper, we propose the Hybrid-Layer Index (simply, the HL-index) that is designed to answer top-k queries efficiently when the queries are expressed on any arbitrary subset ...
Abstract Existing solutions to the automated physical design problem in database systems attempt to minimize execution costs of input workloads for a given storage constraint. In t...
We address the challenge of semantic gap reduction for image retrieval through an improved SVM-based active relevance feedback framework, together with a hybrid visual and concept...
We describe the design and implementation of QBISM (Query By Interactive, Spatial Multimedia), a prototype for querying and visualizing 3D spatial data. Our first application is i...
