As one of the most interesting scenes, landmarks constitute a large percentage of the vast amount of scene images available on the web. On the other hand, a specific "landmark" usually has some characteristics that distinguish it from surrounding scenes and other landmarks. These two observations make the task of accurately estimating geographic information from a landmark image necessary and feasible. In this paper, we propose a method to identify landmark location by means of landmark recognition in view of significant viewpoint, illumination and temporal variations. We use GPS-based clustering to form groups for different landmarks in the image dataset. The images in each group rather fully express the possible views of the corresponding landmark. We then use a combination of edge and color histogram to match query to database images. Initial experiments with Zubud database and our collected landmark images show that is feasible.

The progress of mobile computing technology is bringing a large amount of multimedia contents such as image. Thus, we need an image retrieval system which searches semantically relevant image. In this paper, we propose a semantic image annotation and retrieval in mobile environments. Previous mobile-based annotation approaches cannot fully express the semantics of image due to the limitation of current form (i.e., keyword tagging). Our approach allows mobile devices to annotate the image automatically using the context-aware information such as temporal and spatial data. In addition, since we annotate the image using RDF(Resource Description Framework) model, we are able to query SPARQL for semantic image retrieval. Our system implemented in android environment shows that it can more fully represent the semantics of image and retrieve the images semantically comparing with other image annotation systems.

This paper describes a structured overlay network scheme based on multiple different time intervals. Many types of data (e.g., sensor data) can be requested at specific time intervals that depend on the user and the system. These queries are referred to as "interval queries." A method for constructing an overlay network that efficiently processes interval queries based on multiple different time intervals is proposed herein. The proposed method assumes a ring topology and assigns nodes to a keyspace based on one-dimensional time information. To reduce the number of forwarded messages for queries, each node constructs shortcut links for each interval that users tend to request. This study confirmed that the proposed method reduces the number of messages needed to process interval queries. The contributions of this study include the clarification of interval queries with specific time intervals; establishment of a structured overlay network scheme based on multiple different time intervals; and experimental verification of the scheme in terms of communication load, delay, and maintenance cost.

As computing technologies are rapidly progressed and widely used, the needs of high quality information have been increased. To satisfy these needs, it is essential to develop a system which can provide an efficient storing, managing and retrieving mechanism of complex multimedia data, esp. video data. In this paper, we propose a metadata model which can support content-based retrieval of video data. And we design and implement an integrated user interface for querying and browser for content-based retrieval in video database which can efficiently access and browse the video clip that user want to see. Proposed query processor and browser can support various user queries by integrating image feature, spatial temporal feature and annotation. Our system supports structure browsing of retrieved result, so users can more exactly and efficiently access relevant video clip. Without browsing the whole video clip, users can know the contents of video by seeing the storyboard. This storyboard facility makes users know more quickly the content of video clip.

The emerging notion of data stream has brought many new challenges to the research communities as a consequence of its conceptual difference with conventional concepts of just data. One typical example is data stream processing in sensor networks. The range of data processing considerations in a sensor network is very wide, from physical resource restrictions such as bandwidth, energy, and memory to the peculiarities of query processing including continuous and specific types of queries. In this paper, as one of the physical constraints in data stream processing, we consider the problem of limited memory and propose a new scheme for data stream reduction based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique. PCA can transform a number of (possibly) correlated variables into a (smaller) number of uncorrelated variables. We adapt PCA for the data stream of a sensor network assuming the cooperation of a query engine (or application) with a network base station. Our method exploits the spatio-temporal correlation among multiple measurements from different sensors. Finally, we present a new framework for data processing and describe a number of experiments under this framework. We compare our scheme with the wavelet transform and observe the effect of time stamps on the compression ratio. We report on some of the results.

Similarity matching in video database is of growing importance in many new applications such as video clustering and digital video libraries. In order to provide efficient access to relevant data in large databases, there have been many research efforts in video indexing with diverse spatial and temporal features. however, most of the previous works relied on sequential matching methods or memory-based inverted file techniques, thus making them unsuitable for a large volume of video databases. In order to resolve this problem, this paper proposes an effective and scalable indexing technique using a trie, originally proposed for string matching, as an index structure. For building an index, we convert each frame into a symbol sequence using a window order heuristic and build a disk-resident trie from a set of symbol sequences. For query processing, we perform a depth-first search on the trie and execute a temporal segmentation. To verify the superiority of our approach, we perform several experiments with real and synthetic data sets. The results reveal that our approach consistently outperforms the sequential scan method, and the performance gain is maintained even with a large volume of video databases.

The movement of continuously changing positions should be stored and indexed for querying current and past positions. A simple extension of the original R-tree to add time as another dimension, called 3D R-tree, does not handle current position queries and does not address the problem of low space utilization due to high overlap of index nodes. In this paper, 1 propose the dynamic splitting policy for improving the 3D R-tree in order to improve space utilization of split nodes. 1 also extend the original 3D R-tree by introducing a new tagged index structure for being able to query the current and past positions of moving objects. 1 found out that my extension of the original R-tree, called the tagged dynamic 3DR-tree, outperforms both the 3D R-tree and 75-tree when querying current and past position.

Because there are so many spatio-temporal data in Moving Object Databases, a single disk system can not gain the fast response time and tota throughput. So it is needed to take a parallel processing system for the high effectiveness query process. In these existing parallel process-ing system. it does not consider characters of moving object data. Moving object data have to be thought about continuous report to the Moving Object Databases. So it is necessary think about the new Declustering System for the high performance system. In this paper, we propose the new Dechustering Policies of Moving objet data for high effectiveness query processing. At first, consider a spatial part of MBB(Minimum Bounding Box) then take a SD(SemiAllocation Disk) value. Second time, consider a SD value and time value which is node made at together as SDT-Proximity. And for more accuracy Declustering effect, consider a Load Balancing. Evaluation shows performance improvement of aver-age %15\%$ compare with Round-Robin method about $5\%\;and\;10\%$ query area. And performance improvement of average $6\%$ compare with Spatial Proximity method.

Trajectories of RFID tags can be modeled as a line, denoted by tag interval, captured by an RFID reader and indexed in a three-dimensional domain, with the axes being the tag identifier (TID), the location identifier (LID), and the time (TIME). Distribution of tag intervals in the domain space is an important factor for efficient processing of a query for tracing tags and is changed according to arranging coordinates of each domain. Particularly, the arrangement of LIDs in the domain has an effect on the performance of queries retrieving the traces of tags as times goes by because it provides the location information of tags. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the optimal ordering of LIDs in order to perform queries efficiently for retrieving tag intervals from the index. To do this, we propose LID proximity for reordering previously assigned LIDs to new LIDs and define the LID proximity function for storing tag intervals accessed together closely in index nodes when a query is processed. To determine the sequence of LIDs in the domain, we also propose a reordering scheme of LIDs based on LID proximity. Our experiments show that the proposed reordering scheme considerably improves the performance of Queries for tracing tag locations comparing with the previous method of assigning LIDs.
