In the constraint database community, FO+poly and FO+linear have been proposed as foundations for spatial database query languages. One of the strengths of this approach is that t...
We introduce the notion of a data topology and the problem of topology search over databases. A data topology summarizes the set of all possible relationships that connect a given...
The present work covers a comparison of the text retrieval qualities of open source relational databases and Lucene, which is a full text search engine library, over English docume...
Classical retrieval models support content-oriented searching for documents using a set of words as data model. However, in hypertext and database applications we want to consider...
—We present a novel framework to generate and rank plausible hypotheses for the spatial extent of objects in images using bottom-up computational processes and mid-level selectio...
