In conventional programming languages like Java, the interface for accessing databases is often inelegant. Typically, an entire separate database query language must be embedded inside a conventional programming language for programmers to access the full ...
This paper approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. We construct a ring of databases and use it as the foundation of the design of a query calculus that allows to express powerful aggregate queries. The query calcu ...
Given a two-dimensional smooth manifold M and a bijective pro jection p from M on a fixed plane (or a subset of that plane), we explore systematically how a wavelet transform (WT) on M may be generated from a plane WT by the inverse projection. Examples whe ...
Embedded wireless networks find a broad spectrum of applications in transportation, environmental monitoring, logistics, supply chain management, and "pocketswitched" communication. The node mobility patterns in these applications tend to give rise to spat ...
This paper investigates the detection of English spoken terms in a conversational multi-language scenario. The speech is processed using a large vocabulary continuous speech recognition system. The recognition output is represented in the form of word reco ...
In standard database scenarios, an end-user assumes that all data (e.g., sensor readings) is stored in a database. Therefore, one can simply submit any arbitrary complex processing in the form of SQL queries or stored procedures to a database server. Data ...
This report presents a semi-supervised method to jointly extract audio-visual sources from a scene. It consist of applying a supervised method to segment the video signal followed by an automatic process to properly separate the audio track. This approach ...
Non-adaptive group testing involves grouping arbitrary subsets of n items into different pools and identifying defective items based on tests obtained for each pool. Motivated by applications in network tomography, sensor networks and infection propagati ...

Instead of writing SQL queries directly, programmers often prefer writing all their code in a general purpose programming language like Java and having their programs be automatically rewritten to use database queries. Traditional tools such as object-rela ...
Content-based video retrieval has become a very active research area in the last decade due to the increasing number of video shared on social networks such as YouTube and Daily-Motion. While most of the content-based video retrieval approaches employ visu ...
