The two dominant costs in continuous spatial query systems are the wireless communication cost for location update, and the evaluation cost for query processing. Existing works add...
The class of k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) queries is frequently used in geospatial applications. Many studies focus on processing kNN in Euclidean and road network spaces. Meanwhile, ...
Abstract. A classical problem in query optimization is to find the optimal ordering of a set of possibly correlated selections. We provide an ion of this problem as a generalizati...
Abstract-- Recent work has demonstrated that readings provided by commodity sensor nodes are often of poor quality. In order to provide a valuable sensory infrastructure for monito...
Learning semantics from annotated images to enhance content-based retrieval is an important research direction. In this paper, annotation data are assumed available for only a sub...
