Similarity calculations and document ranking form the computationally expensive parts of query processing in ranking-based text retrieval. In this work, for these calculations, 11...
Abstract: Query languages for XML such as XPath or XQuery support Boolean retrieval where a query result is a (possibly restructured) subset of XML elements or entire documents tha...
We describe a system for rapidly determining document similarity among a set of documents obtained from an information retrieval (IR) system. We obtain a ranked list of the most i...
—Shape similarity and shape retrieval are very important topics in computer vision. The recent progress in this domain has been mostly driven by designing smart shape descriptors...

Many strategies for similarity search in image databases assume a metric and quadratic form-based similarity model where an optimal lower bounding distance function exists for fil...
