Abstract. In this paper, we present an image retrieval system that employs both the color and spatial information of images to facilitate the retrieval process. The basic unit used...
— We propose a randomized data mining method that finds clusters of spatially overlapping images. The core of the method relies on the min-Hash algorithm for fast detection of p...
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are increasingly managing very large sets of data and hence a centralized data repository may not always provide the most scalable solution. H...
—Metric space searching is an emerging technique to address the problem of efficient similarity searching in many applications, including multimedia databases and other reposito...
We present a technique for organizing data in spatial databases with non-convex domains based on an automatic characterization using the medial-axis transform (MAT). We define a t...
