Abstract. Although maps and partitions are ubiquitous in geographical information systems and spatial databases, there is only little work investigating their foundations. We give ...
Spatial indexes, such as the PMR quadtree, are important in spatial databases for efficient execution of queries involving spatial constraints, especially when the queries involve...
This paper presents a method for representing uncertainty in spatial data in a database. The model presented requires moderate amounts of storage space. To compute the probability...
The categorization of our environment into feature types is an essential prerequisite for cartography, geographic information retrieval, routing applications, spatial decision supp...
Many user interfaces, from graphic design programs to navigation aids in cars, share a virtual space with the user. Such applications are often ideal candidates for speech interfa...
