This paper introduces a simple Sum-over-Paths (SoP) formulation of string edit distances accounting for all possible alignments between two sequences, and extends related previous...
The problem of indexing time series has attracted much interest. Most algorithms used to index time series utilize the Euclidean distance or some variation thereof. However, it has...
A number of similarity metrics have been used to measure the degree of web page changes in the literature. In this paper, we define criteria for web page changes to evaluate the ef...
In content based retrieval, color indexing is one of the most prevalent retrieval methods. Two key problems in color indexing are (1) determination of the color space and (2) fin...
