We present practical algorithms for accelerating geometric queries on models made of NURBS surfaces using programmable Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). We provide a generalized f...
The issue of ®nding similar 3-D surface segments arises in many recent applications of spatial database systems, such as molecular biology, medical imaging, CAD, and geographic i...
Various query methods for video search exist. Because of the semantic gap each method has its limitations. We argue that for effective retrieval query methods need to be combined ...
In this paper, we propose a unified framework, called Markov Model Mediator (MMM), to facilitate image database clustering and to improve the query performance. The structure of t...

We present a comprehensive strategy for evaluating image retrieval algorithms. Because automated image retrieval is only meaningful in its service to people, performance character...
