Linear Approximation of Planar Spatial Databases Using Transitive-Closure Logic
We consider spatial databases in the plane that can be defined by polynomial constraint formulas. Motivated by applications in geographic information systems, we investigate line...

A Small Set of Formal Topological Relationships Suitable for End-User Interaction
Topological relationships between spatial objects represent important knowledge that users of geographic information systems expect to retrieve from a spatial database. A di cult t...

Continuous obstructed nearest neighbor queries in spatial databases
In this paper, we study a novel form of continuous nearest neighbor queries in the presence of obstacles, namely continuous obstructed nearest neighbor (CONN) search. It considers...

Semantics in Spatial Databases
In this paper we discuss two data models for spatial database systems: the linear data model and the topological data model. Both can be used to model a wide range of applications....

Identifying spatially similar gene expression patterns in early stage fruit fly embryo images: binary feature versus invariant m
Background: Modern developmental biology relies heavily on the analysis of embryonic gene expression patterns. Investigators manually inspect hundreds or thousands of expression p...
