Given a set D = {d1, d2, ..., dD} of D strings of total length n, our task is to report the "most relevant" strings for a given query pattern P. This involves somewhat mo...
Metric Access Methods (MAM) are employed to accelerate the processing of similarity queries, such as the range and the k-nearest neighbor queries. Current methods improve the quer...

So far global optimization techniques have been developed independently for the tasks of shape matching and image segmentation. In this paper we show that both tasks can in fact b...
In this paper, an optimal relevance algorithm is proposed, which adapts the response of a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system to the user's information needs. In part...
