Synopsis
Appropriate for use as a graduate textbook, this monograph develops signature indexing schemes for the representation of complex objects with multi-valued attributes that allow for the development of efficient searching in web and multimedia environments. The authors (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) examine the adoption of signatures in image databases for the fast processing of queries that deal with the image content and for the retrieval of images that are similar to a given image, and describe proposed methods for the exploitation of logged web accesses in order to extract similar users' behaviors.
