Predicting Internet Network Distance with Coordinates-Based Approaches

by T. S. Eugene Ng, Hui Zhang - In INFOCOM , 2001
"... In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission delay) . We study two mechanisms. The first is a previously proposed scheme, called the triangulated heuristic, which is bas ..."

their own coordinates, these approaches allow end hosts to compute their inter-host distances as soon as they discover each other. Moreover coordinates are very efficient in summarizing inter-host distances, making these approaches very scalable. By performing experiments using measured Internet distance

Recognizing action at a distance

by Alexei A. Efros, Alexander C. Berg, Greg Mori, Jitendra Malik - PROCEEDINGS OF THE IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER VISION , 2003
"... Our goal is to recognize human actions at a distance, at resolutions where a whole person may be, say, 30 pixels tall. We introduce a novel motion descriptor based on optical flow measurements in a spatio-temporal volume for each stabilized human figure, and an associated similarity measure to be us ..."

A Hierarchical Internet Object Cache

by Anawat Chankhunthod , Peter B. Danzig, Chuck Neerdaels, Michael F. Schwartz, Kurt J. Worrell - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1996 USENIX TECHNICAL CONFERENCE , 1995
"... This paper discusses the design andperformance of a hierarchical proxy-cache designed to make Internet information systems scale better. The design was motivated by our earlier trace-driven simulation study of Internet traffic. We believe that the conventional wisdom, that the benefits of hierarch ..."

of hierarchical file caching do not merit the costs, warrants reconsideration in the Internet environment. The cache implementation supports a highly concurrent stream of requests. We present performance measurements that show that the cache outperforms other popular Internet cache implementations by an order

Measurement and Analysis of Online Social Networks

by Alan Mislove, Massimiliano Marcon, Krishna P. Gummadi, Peter Druschel, Bobby Bhattacharjee - In Proceedings of the 5th ACM/USENIX Internet Measurement Conference (IMC’07 , 2007
"... Online social networking sites like Orkut, YouTube, and Flickr are among the most popular sites on the Internet. Users of these sites form a social network, which provides a powerful means of sharing, organizing, and finding content and contacts. The popularity of these sites provides an opportunity ..."

Fuzzy extractors: How to generate strong keys from biometrics and other noisy data

by Yevgeniy Dodis, Rafail Ostrovsky, Leonid Reyzin, Adam Smith , 2008
"... We provide formal definitions and efficient secure techniques for • turning noisy information into keys usable for any cryptographic application, and, in particular, • reliably and securely authenticating biometric data. Our techniques apply not just to biometric information, but to any keying mater ..."

for various measures of “closeness” of input data, such as Hamming distance, edit distance, and set difference.

Vivaldi: A Decentralized Network Coordinate System

by Frank Dabek, Russ Cox, Frans Kaashoek, Robert Morris - In SIGCOMM , 2004
"... Large-scale Internet applications can benefit from an ability to predict round-trip times to other hosts without having to contact them first. Explicit measurements are often unattractive because the cost of measurement can outweigh the benefits of exploiting proximity information. Vivaldi is a simp ..."

Semantic similarity based on corpus statistics and lexical taxonomy

by Jay J. Jiang, David W. Conrath - Proc of 10th International Conference on Research in Computational Linguistics, ROCLING’97 , 1997
"... This paper presents a new approach for measuring semantic similarity/distance between words and concepts. It combines a lexical taxonomy structure with corpus statistical information so that the semantic distance between nodes in the semantic space constructed by the taxonomy can be better quantifie ..."

An Optimal Algorithm for Approximate Nearest Neighbor Searching in Fixed Dimensions

by Sunil Arya, David M. Mount, Nathan S. Netanyahu, Ruth Silverman, Angela Y. Wu - ACM-SIAM SYMPOSIUM ON DISCRETE ALGORITHMS , 1994
"... Consider a set S of n data points in real d-dimensional space, R d , where distances are measured using any Minkowski metric. In nearest neighbor searching we preprocess S into a data structure, so that given any query point q 2 R d , the closest point of S to q can be reported quickly. Given any po ..."

Resilient Overlay Networks

by David Andersen, Hari Balakrishnan, Frans Kaashoek, Robert Morris , 2001
"... A Resilient Overlay Network (RON) is an architecture that allows distributed Internet applications to detect and recover from path outages and periods of degraded performance within several seconds, improving over today’s wide-area routing protocols that take at least several minutes to recover. A R ..."

, optimizing application-specific routing metrics. Results from two sets of measurements of a working RON deployed at sites scattered across the Internet demonstrate the benefits of our architecture. For instance, over a 64-hour sampling period in March 2001 across a twelve-node RON, there were 32 significant

Features of similarity.

by Amos Tversky - Psychological Review , 1977
"... Similarity plays a fundamental role in theories of knowledge and behavior. It serves as an organizing principle by which individuals classify objects, form concepts, and make generalizations. Indeed, the concept of similarity is ubiquitous in psychological theory. It underlies the accounts of stimu ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1455 (2 self) - Add to MetaCart
. These models represent objects as points in some coordinate space such that the observed dissimilarities between objects correspond to the metric distances between the respective points. Practically all analyses of proximity data have been metric in nature, although some (e.g., hierarchical clustering) yield
