This paper generalizes the concept of the signal space detection to construct a fixed delay tree search (FDTS) detector which estimates a block of n channel symbols at a time. This technique is applicable to high speed implementation. Two approaches are discussed both of which are based on efficient signal space partitioning. In the first approach, symbol detection is performed based on a multi-class partitioning of the signal space. This approach is a generalization of binary symbol detection based on a two-class pattern classification. In the second approach, binary signal detection is combined with a look-ahead technique, resulting in a highly parallel detector architecture.

Partial response maximum-likelihood (PRML) and fixed-delay tree search with decision feedback (FDTS/DF) yield a sub-optimum performance in storage systems. However, they suffer from the inevitable complexity problems. this paper focuses on detection schemes to overcome the drawbacks of the sequence detections by exploiting minimum run-length d=2. It is expected that the proposed systems yield substantial reductions of both processing speed and receiver complexity. When combined with a decision feedback equalization (DFE), they prove to keep pace with the FDTS/DF with ${\tau}$=2 and even outperform the PR(1111)ML at normalized density S>5.6.

In this paper we consider the problem of finding the triplet (S,${\pi}$,f), where $S{\subseteq}V$, ${\pi}$ is a sequence of nodes in S and $f:V{\backslash}S{\rightarrow}S$ for a given complete graph G=(V,E). In particular, there exist two costs, $c^V_{uv}$ and $c^D_{uv}$ for $(u,v){\in}E$, and the cost of triplet (S,${\pi}$,f) is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^{{\mid}S{\mid}}c^V_{{\pi}(i){\pi}(i+1)}+2$ ${\sum_{u{\in}V{\backslash}S}c^D_{uf(u)}$. This problem is motivated by the integrated routing of the vehicle and drone for urban delivery services. Since a well-known NP-complete TSP (Traveling Salesman Problem) is a special case of our problem, we cannot expect to have any polynomial-time algorithm unless P=NP. Furthermore, for practical purposes, we may not rely on time-exhaustive enumeration method such as branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut. This paper suggests the simple heuristic which is motivated by the MST (minimum spanning tree)-based approximation algorithm and neighborhood search heuristic for TSP.

Address lookup is an essential function in the Internet routers, and it determines overall router performance. In this paper, we have thoroughly investigated the binary-search-based address lookup algorithms and proposed a new algorithm based on binary search on prefix lengths. Most of the existing binary search schemes perform binary search on prefix values, and hence the lookup speed is proportional to the length of prefixes or the log function of the number of prefixes. The previous algorithm based on binary search on prefix lengths has superior lookup performance than others. However, the algorithm requires very complicated pre-computation of markers and best matching prefixes in internal nodes since naive binary search is not possible in their scheme. This complicated pre-computation makes the composition of the routing table and incremental update very difficult. By using leaf-pushing, the proposed algorithm in this paper removes the complicated pre-computation of the Previous work in performing the binary search on prefix lengths. The performance evaluation results show that the proposed scheme has very good performance in lookup speed compared with previous works.

Embryo is a very early stage of the development of multicellular organism such as animals and plants. It is an important research target for studying ontogeny because the fundamental body system of multicellular organism is determined during an embryo state. Researchers in the developmental biology have a large volume of embryo image databases for studying embryos and they frequently search for an embryo image efficiently from those databases. Thus, it is crucial to organize databases for their efficient search. Hierarchical clustering methods have been widely used for database organization. However, most of previous algorithms tend to produce a highly skewed tree as a result of clustering because they do not simultaneously consider both the size of a cluster and the number of objects within the cluster. The skewed tree requires much time to be traversed in users' search process. In this paper, we propose a method that effectively organizes a large volume of embryo image data in a balanced tree structure. We first represent embryo image data as a similarity-based graph. Next, we identify clusters by performing a graph partitioning algorithm repeatedly. We check constantly the size of a cluster and the number of objects, and partition clusters whose size is too large or whose number of objects is too high, which prevents clusters from growing too large or having too many objects. We show the superiority of the proposed method by extensive experiments. Moreover, we implement the visualization tool to help users quickly and easily navigate the embryo image database.

As XML emerging as the Internet electronic document language standard of the next generation, the number of XML documents which contain vast amount of Information is increasing substantially through the transformation of existing documents to XML documents or the appearance of new XML documents. Consequently, XML document retrieval system becomes extremely essential for searching through a large quantity of XML documents that are storied in and managed by DBMS. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of BADA-IV/XML query processor that supports content-based, structure-based and attribute-based retrieval. We design XML query language based upon XQL (XML Query Language) of W3C and tightly-coupled with OQL (a query language for object-oriented database). XML document is stored and maintained in BADA-IV, which is an object-oriented database management system developed by ETRI (Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute) The storage data model is based on DOM (Document Object Model), therefore the retrieval of XML documents is executed basically using DOM tree traversal. We improve the search performance using Node ID which represents node's hierarchy information in an XML document. Assuming that DOW tree is a complete k-ary tree, we show that Node ID technique is superior to DOM tree traversal from the viewpoint of node fetch counts.

A minimum terminal path decomposition of a tree is defined as a partition of the tree into edge-disjoint terminal-to-terminal paths that minimizes the weight of the longest path. In this paper, we present an $O({\mid}V{\mid}^2$time algorithm to find a minimum terminal path decomposition of trees. The algorithm reduces the given optimization problem to the binary search using the corresponding decision problem, the problem to decide whether the cost of a minimum terminal path decomposition is at most l. This decision problem is solved by dynamic programing in a single traversal of the tree.

To increase the retrieval performance in spatial database systems, it is required to develop spatial indexing methods considered the spatial locality. The spatial locality is related to the location property of objects. The previous spatial indexing methods are not considered the circular location property that objects will be taken. In this paper, we propose a dynamic spatial index structure called $Cr^*$-tree, and evaluate the performance of the proposed index structure. This is a new spatial index structure considered the circular location property of objects in which a search space is constructed with the circular and linear domains. By the simulation results, the $Cr^*$-tree shows that the number of disk across is low and the bucket utilization is high regardless of object distribution and bucket capacity.

Recently, It has been increased to use a multi-dimensional data in various applications with a rapid growth of the computing environment. In this paper, we propose the vector approximate tree for content-based retrieval of multi-dimensional data. The proposed index structure reduces the depth of tree by storing the many region information in a node because of representing region information using space partition based method and vector approximation method. Also it efficiently handles 'dimensionality curse' that causes a problem of multi-dimensional index structure by assigning the multi-dimensional data space to dynamic bit. And it provides the more correct regions by representing the child region information as the parent region information relatively. We show that our index structure outperforms the existing index structure by various experimental evaluations.

SPIHT algorithm is a wavelet based fast and effective technique for image compression. It uses a list structure to store status information which is generated during set-partitioning of toro-tree. Usually, this requires lots of additional memory depending on how high the bit-rate is. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new technique called MZC-BFS, which needs no additional memory when running SPIHT algorithm. It explicitly performs a breadth first search of the spatial-tree using peano-code and eliminates additional memory as it uses pre-status significant test for encoding and LSB bits of some coefficients for decoding respectively. This method yields nearly the same performance as SPIHT. This may be desirable in fast and simple hardware implementation and reduces the cost of production because no lists and additional memory are required.
