The similarity join is an important database primitive which has been successfully applied to speed up applications such as similarity search, data analysis and data mining. The s...
This paper describes how to increase the efficiency of inductive data mining algorithms by replacing the central matching operation with a marker propagation technique. Breadth-fi...
Numerical particle simulations and astronomical observations create huge data sets containing uncorrelated 3D points of varying size. These data sets cannot be visualized interact...
