The quadratic form distance (QFD) has been utilized as an effective similarity function in multimedia retrieval, in particular, when a histogram representation of objects is used...
Similarity search, namely, finding approximate nearest neighborhoods, is the core of many large scale machine learning or vision applications. Recently, many research results dem...
Probabilistic data is coming as a new deluge along with the technical advances on geographical tracking, multimedia processing, sensor network and RFID. While similarity search is...
The continuous and rapid advent in mobile and communications technology opens the way for new research areas and new applications. Moving Object Databases(MODs) are among the emer...
Many time series data mining problems require subsequence similarity search as a subroutine. While this can be performed with any distance measure, and dozens of distance measures ...

We researched to try to find a way to reduce the cost of nearest neighbor searches in metric spaces. Many similarity search indexes recursively divide a region into subregions by u...
Most multimedia information retrieval systems use an indexing scheme to speed up similarity search. The index aims to discard large portions of the data collection at query time. ...
As the number of digital images is growing fast and Content-based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is gaining in popularity, CBIR systems should leap towards Webscale datasets. In this paper...
