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...
One of the keys issues to content-based image retrieval is the similarity measurement of images. Images are represented as points in the space of low-level visual features and mos...
—As databases increasingly integrate different types of information such as multimedia, spatial, time-series, and scientific data, it becomes necessary to support efficient retri...
Background: Large-scale sequence comparison is a powerful tool for biological inference in modern molecular biology. Comparing new sequences to those in annotated databases is a u...
The neural representation of space in rats has inspired many navigation systems for robots. In particular, Self-Organizing (Feature) Maps (SOM) are often used to give a sense of lo...
