Technical report TR01-03. In this paper, we present a new Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) approach which is based on cluster analysis. A distinguishing aspect of CBIR is that it relies on a visual content representation (metadata) of the images. In order to produce such metadata, we propose...

Technical report TR96-10. We propose a query mediation framework to support customizable information gathering across heterogeneous and autonomous information sources. Instead of an integrated (and static) global schema, we propose an adaptive approach to interoperability which allows information...

Technical report TR94-01. Objectbase Management Systems are expected to serve data management needs of a wide range of application domains with possibly different query optimization requirements, creating the need of extensibility in the query optimizer to be able to handle the diversity of those...
