A Query-by-singing Technique for Retrieving Polyphonic
- Objects of Popular Music,” Proc. Asian Information Retrieval Symposium
"... Abstract. This paper investigates the problem of retrieving popular music by singing. In contrast to the retrieval of MIDI music, which is easy to acquire the main melody by the selection of the symbolic tracks, retrieving polyphonic objects in CD or MP3 format requires to extract the main melody di ..."

by taking into account the characteristic structure of popular song. In addition, to accommodate users ’ unprofessional or personal singing styles, methods are proposed to handle the inaccuracies of tempo, pause, transposition, or off-key, etc., inevitably existing in queries. The proposed system has been

"... Abstract—This paper investigates the problem of retrieving karaoke music using query-by-singing techniques. Unlike regular CD music, where the stereo sound involves two audio channels that usually sound the same, karaoke music encompasses two distinct channels in each track: one is a mixture of the ..."

Holistic twig joins: optimal XML pattern matching
- in: Proceedings of ACM SIGMOD International Conference on Management of Data, 2002
"... XML employs a tree-structured data model, and, naturally, XML queries specify patterns of selection predicates on multiple elements related by a tree structure. Finding all occurrences of such a twig pattern in an XML database is a core operation for XML query processing. Prior work has typically de ..."

of this approach for matching twig patterns is that intermediate result sizes can get large, even when the input and output sizes are more manageable. In this paper, we propose a novel holistic twig join algorithm, TwigStack, for matching an XML query twig pattern. Our technique uses a chain of linked stacks
Including Group-By in Query Optimization
, 1994
"... In existing relational database systems, processing of group-by and computation of aggregate functions are always postponed until all joins are performed. In this paper, we present transformations that make it possible to push group-by operation past one or more joins and can potentially reduce the ..."

the cost of processing a query significantly. Therefore, the placement of group-by should be decided based on cost estimation. We explain how the traditional System-R style optimizers can be modified by incorporating the greedy conservative heuristic that we developed. We prove that applications of greedy
Congressional samples for approximate answering of group-by queries
- In Proc. of the 2000 ACM SIGMOD Intl. Conf. on Management of Data
, 2000
"... In large data warehousing environments, it is often advantageous to provide fast, approximate answers to complex decision support queries using precomputed summary statistics, such as samples. Decision support queries routinely segment the data into groups and then aggregate the information in each ..."

will be represented in the sample by very few (often zero) tuples. In this paper, we propose a general class of techniques for obtaining fast, highly-accurate answers for group-by queries. These techniques rely on precomputed non-uniform (biased) samples of the data. In particular, we proposecongressional samples
Bottom-up computation of sparse and Iceberg CUBE
- In Proceedings of the 5th ACM international workshop on Data Warehousing and OLAP, DOLAP ’02
, 1999
"... We introduce the Iceberg-CUBE problem as a reformulation of the datacube (CUBE) problem. The Iceberg-CUBE problem is to compute only those group-by partitions with an aggregate value (e.g., count) above some minimum support threshold. The result of Iceberg-CUBE can be used (1) to answer group-by que ..."

-CUBE computation. BUC builds the CUBE bottom-up; i.e., it builds the CUBE by starting from a group-by on a single attribute, then a group-by on a pair of attributes, then a group-by on three attributes, and so on. This is the opposite of all techniques proposed earlier for computing the CUBE, and has an important

"... As the web continues to play an ever increasing role in information exchange, so too is it becoming the prevailing platform for infecting vulnerable hosts. In this paper, we provide a detailed study of the pervasiveness of so-called drive-by downloads on the Internet. Drive-by downloads are caused b ..."

We also explore several aspects of the drive-by downloads problem. We study the relationship between the user browsing habits and exposure to malware, the different
An Audio Front End for Query-by-Humming Systems
- In Proceedings of International Symposium on Music Information Retrieval
, 2001
"... In this paper, the problem of processing audio signals is addressed in the context of query-by-humming systems. Since singing is naturally used as input, we aim to develop a front end dedicated to the symbolic translation of voice into a sequence of pitch and duration pairs. This operation is crucia ..."

First, we perform HSV-space segmentation to extract regions of perceptually relevant color, to build ..."
