Database search for images containing icons with specific mutual spatial relationships can be facilitated by an appropriately structured index. For the case of images containing s...
View materialization is known to be a valuable technique for performance optimization in relational databases, and much work has been done addressing the problem of consistently m...
We present a dynamic inference algorithm in a globally parameterized nonlinear manifold and demonstrate it on the problem of visual tracking. An appearance manifold is usually non...
Data Warehouses and On-Line Analytical Processing systems rely on a multidimensional model that includes dimensions, hierarchies, and measures. Such model allows to express users&...
Similarity matrices generated from many applications may not be positive semidefinite, and hence can't fit into the kernel machine framework. In this paper, we study the prob...
