Cluster-based multi-tier systems provide a means for building scalable Internet services. Building adaptive Internet services that are able to apply appropriate system sizing and ...
Summarizing topological relations is fundamental to many spatial applications including spatial query optimization. In this paper, we examine the selectivity estimation for range w...
The mean shift algorithm, which is a nonparametric density
estimator for detecting the modes of a distribution on a
Euclidean space, was recently extended to operate on analytic
