Given a starting point, destination point and various Points Of Interest (POIs), which contain a full or partial order, for a user to visit we wish to create, a sequenced route from the starting point to the destination point that includes one member of each POI type in a particular order. This paper proposes a method for finding the approximate shortest route between the start point, destination point and one member of each POI type. There are currently two algorithms that perform this task but they both have weaknesses. One of the algorithms only considers the distance between the visited POI (or starting point) and POI to visit next. The other algorithm chooses candidate points near the straight-line distance between the start point and destination but does not consider the order of visits on the corresponding network path. This paper outlines an algorithm that chooses the candidate points that are nearer to the network path between the start point and destination using network search. The algorithm looks for routes using the candidate points and finds the approximate shortest route by assigning an adaptive priority to the route that visits more POIs in a short amount of time.

Removing noise, called denoising, is an essential factor for the more intuitive and more accurate results in boundary image matching. This paper deals with a partial denoising problem that tries to allow a limited amount of partial noise embedded in boundary images. To solve this problem, we first define partial denoising time-series which can be generated from an original image time-series by removing a variety of partial noises and propose an efficient mechanism that quickly obtains those partial denoising time-series in the time-series domain rather than the image domain. We next present the partial denoising distance, which is the minimum distance from a query time-series to all possible partial denoising time-series generated from a data time-series, and we use this partial denoising distance as a similarity measure in boundary image matching. Using the partial denoising distance, however, incurs a severe computational overhead since there are a large number of partial denoising time-series to be considered. To solve this problem, we derive a tight lower bound for the partial denoising distance and formally prove its correctness. We also propose range and k-NN search algorithms exploiting the partial denoising distance in boundary image matching. Through extensive experiments, we finally show that our lower bound-based approach improves search performance by up to an order of magnitude in partial denoising-based boundary image matching.

A video signature is a set of feature vectors that compactly represents and uniquely characterizes one video clip from another for fast matching. To find a short duplicated region, the video signature must be robust against common video modifications and have a high discriminability. The matching method must be fast and be successful at finding locations. In this paper, a frame-based video signature that uses the spatial information and a two-stage matching method is presented. The proposed method is pair-wise independent and is robust against common video modifications. The proposed two-stage matching method is fast and works very well in finding locations. In addition, the proposed matching structure and strategy can distinguish a case in which a part of the query video matches a part of the target video. The proposed method is verified using video modified by the VCE7 experimental conditions found in MPEG-7. The proposed video signature method achieves a robustness of 88.7% under an independence condition of 5 parts per million with over 1,000 clips being matched per second.

This paper proposes a method of player event retrieval using combination of two functions: detection of player name in speech information and detection of sound event from audio information in golf videos. The system consists of indexing module and retrieval module. At the indexing time audio segmentation and noise reduction are applied to audio stream demultiplexed from the golf videos. The noise-reduced speech is then fed into speech recognizer, which outputs spoken descriptors. The player name and sound event are indexed by the spoken descriptors. At search time, text query is converted into phoneme sequences. The lists of each query term are retrieved through a description matcher to identify full and partial phrase hits. For the retrieval of the player name, this paper compares the results of word-based, phoneme-based, and hybrid approach.

XML Keyword search enables us to get information easily without knowledge of structure of documents and returns specific and useful partial document results instead of whole documents. Element level query processing makes it possible, but computational complexity, as the number of documents grows, increases significantly overhead costs. In this paper, we present document-level ranking scheme over XML documents which predicts results of element-level processing to reduce processing cost. To do this, we propose the notion of 'keyword proximity' - the correlation of keywords in a document that affects the results of element-level query processing using path information of occurrence nodes and their resemblances - for document ranking process. In benefit of document-centric view, it is possible to reduce processing time using ranked document list or filtering of low scored documents. Our experimental evaluation shows that document-level processing technique using ranked document list is effective and improves performance by the early termination for top-k query.

In this paper, we propose the MDBMS(Multi-DataBase Management System) which integrates the LDBMSs(Local DataBase Systems) with heterogeneous environment into distributed system and provides global users with rapidly query process. For designing the MDBMS, we define the functions of components and design the interaction among them. In a point of view of the global view manager in components, we describe the following 3 cases; (1)the case which the results for the global query are all stored to the global view repository, (2)the case which no result exists in the global view repository, and (3)the case which the partial results we stored to the global view repository. By comparing above cases, we establish the functionalities of our MDBMS through the sequence diagram including the interlace of among objects and the method calling. Finally, we propose the model designed in the concrete by showing the executing procedures of each function using sample query on established functions mentioned above.

In this paper, we present a distributed topology control algorithm for constructing an optimized topology having a minimal search-time in unstructured peer-to-peer network. According to the proposed algorithm, each node selects the best nodes having higher hit-ratio than other nodes as many as the number being exponentially proportional to the hit-ratio of the node itself, and then it connects to them. The ensemble behavior of the proposed algorithm is very similar to the recrystrallizing phenomenon that is observed in nature. There is a partial order relationship among the hit-ratios of most nodes of constructed topology. Therefore once query message visits a node, it has a higher hit-ratio than the node that was visited last by the message. The query message even sent from freeloader can escape to the node having high hit-ratio by one hop forwarding, and it never revisits any freeloader again. Thus the search can be completed within a limited search time. We also propose the Chain-reactive search scheme using the constructed topology. Such a controlled multicasting reduces the query messages by 43 percent compared to that of the naive Gnutella using broadcasting, while it saves the search time by 94 percent. The search success rate of the proposed scheme is 99 percent.

Spatial database systems in client-server environment have network overload due to the large amount of spatial data transmission. Users use the window query that loads partial region of a whole map for quick response time in the environment. A series of window query such as screen movement, enlargement or shrinkage requires data in similar region and this increases network overload by re-transmitting the same data in intersected region with the earlier transmitted region. Removing the transmitted data from query results can solve this problem. In this paper, we design and implement a spatial object manager in order to remove the intersected region occurred by a series of window query. The spatial object manager manages the object identifiers of transmitted objects and removes transmitted objects from spatial objects of the query result by using the removal technique of the intersected region for the transmission and comparison. We utilize GEOMania Millennium server, an open client-server spatial database system, as spatial object manager in this paper. The result of the performance evaluation shows that the spatial object manager removes the transmission of the data redundancy, reduces network overload and improves the overall system performance.

In mobile distributed systems the data on the air can be accessed by a lot of mobile clients. And, we need an indexing scheme in order to energy-efficiently access the data on the wireless broadcast stream. In conventional indexing schemes, they use the values of primary key attributes and construct tree-structured index. Therefore, the conventional indexing schemes do not support content-based retrieval queries such as partial-match queries. In this paper we propose an indexing scheme, called B2V-Tree, which supports partial match queries on wireless broadcast data stream. For this purpose, we construct a tree-structured index which is composed of bit-vectors, where the bit-vectors are generated from data records through multi-attribute hashing.

본 논문은 다중 Tier 상에서 온라인 서비스 대량 데이타 처리를 빠르고 정확하게 클라이언트에 전달하는 기법을 제안한다. Tier 가 많은 온라인 서비스상에서 대량의 데이타를 빠르게 처리하는 데에는 많은 어려움이 있다. Tier 간 지연 시간의 최소화, 네트워크 대역폭를 고려한 트란잭션(Transaction)의 적절한 분할 통신, 이 기종간의 데이타 변환 시 처리속도 개선 등이 해결해야 할 주요한 요건이라고 할 수 있다. 하지만 이러한 문제들이 해결된다고 해서 괄목할 만한 성능의 개선은 쉽게 나타나지 않는다. 그 이유는 바로 Partial Query에 의한 데이타 통신이 꾸준히 반복 발생하기 때문이다. 온라인 서비스의 특성상 대량 데이타는 많은 사용자의 효율적인 트란잭션 처리를 위하여 분할(Partial) 처리되어 통신하는 방식을 기준으로 사용하고 있다. 이러한 방식을 준수 하기 위해서는 데이타 사이즈에 비례하는 반복의 증가가 불가피하다. 그래서 반복 횟수를 줄이는데 포커스를 두고 온라인 서비스 대량 데이타 처리에 대한 성능 데스트를 진행한 결과 반복이 최소화 될수록 성능은 최대한으로 유지되며, 다른 어떤 기술적인 요소를 개선하는 것보다 큰 효과를 볼 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
