Class posterior distributions have recently been used quite successfully in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), either for frame or phone level classification or as acoustic featu...
A RkNN query returns all objects whose nearest k neighbors contain the query object. In this paper, we consider RkNN query processing in the case where the distances between attri...
Tree edit distance is one of the most frequently used distance measures for comparing trees. When using the tree edit distance, we need to determine the cost of each operation, bu...
In this paper we investigate the Erd¨os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We pr...
Efficient user-adaptable similarity search more and more increases in its importance for multimedia and spatial database systems. As a general similarity model for multi-dimension...
