The mobile visual search service uses a query image to acquire linkage information through pre-constructed DB search. From the standpoint of this purpose, it would be more useful if you could perform a search on a web-based keyword search system instead of a pre-built DB search. In this paper, we propose a representative query extraction algorithm to be used as a keyword on a web-based search system. To do this, we use image classification labels generated by the CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) algorithm based on Deep Learning, which has a remarkable performance in image recognition. In the query extraction algorithm, dictionary meaningful words are extracted using Wikipedia, and hierarchical categories are constructed using WordNet. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by measuring the system response time.

We propose an indexing technique and an index selection algorithm for optimal OLAP query processing in object database systems, Although there are many research results on the relational database systems for OLAP Query processing, few researches have been done on the object database systems. Since OLAP queries represent complex business logic on a huge data ware-house, object database systems supporting the OLAP queries should have higher performance. Proposed bitmap index structure is an extension of conventional bitmap indexes for adapting object databases and provides higher performance with lower space overhead. We also propose a linear time solution of the index selection problem that will be used in the OLAP query optimization process.

RFID systems large volume of data, it can lead to slower queries. To achieve better query performance, we can partition into active and some nonactive data. In this paper, we propose two approaches of partitioning for efficient query support. The one is average period plus delta partition and the other is adaptive average period partition. We also present the system architecture to manage active data and non-active data and logical database schema. The data manager check the active partition and move all objects from the active store to an archive store associated with an average period plus data and an adaptive average period. Our experiments show the performance of our partitioning methods.

Achieving situation awareness is especially challenging for real-time data stream applications because they i) operate on continuous unbounded streams of data, and ii) have inherent realtime requirements. In this paper we showed how formal data stream modeling and analysis can be used to better understand stream behavior, evaluate query costs, and improve application performance. We used MEDAL, a formal specification language based on Petri nets, to model the data stream queries and the quality-of-service management mechanisms of RT-STREAM, a prototype system for data stream management. MEDAL's ability to combine query logic and data admission control in one model allows us to design a single comprehensive model of the system. This model can be used to perform a large set of analyses to help improve the application's performance and quality of service.

The nearest neighbor query is an important operation widely used in multimedia databases for finding the object that is most similar to a given query object. Most of techniques for processing nearest neighbor queries employ multidimensional indexes for effective indexing of objects. However, the performance of previous multidimensional indexes, which use N-dimensional rectangles or spheres for representing the capsule of the object cluster, deteriorates seriously as the number of dimensions gets higher. This paper proposes a new index structure based singular value decomposition resolving this problem and the query processing method using it. We also verify the superiority of our approach through performance evaluation by performing extensive experiments.

This paper presents a threshold adaptation based voice query transcription scheme for music information retrieval. The proposed scheme analyzes monophonic voice signal and generates its transcription for diverse music retrieval applications. For accurate transcription, we propose several advanced features including (i) Energetic Feature eXtractor (EFX) for onset, peak, and transient area detection; (ii) Modified Windowed Average Energy (MWAE) for defining multiple small but coherent windows with local threshold values as offset detector; and finally (iii) Circular Average Magnitude Difference Function (CAMDF) for accurate acquisition of fundamental frequency (F0) of each frame. In order to evaluate the performance of our proposed scheme, we implemented a prototype music transcription system called AMT2 (Automatic Music Transcriber version 2) and carried out various experiments. In the experiment, we used QBSH corpus [1], adapted in MIREX 2006 contest data set. Experimental result shows that our proposed scheme can improve the transcription performance.

Natural language query is the best user interface for the users of information retrieval systems. This paper Proposes a retrieval system with expanded keyword from syntactically-analyzed structures of user's natural language query based on natural language processing technique. Through the steps combining or splitting the compound nouns based on syntactic tree traversal, and expanding the other-formed or shorten-formed keyword into multiple keyword, the system performance was enhanced up to 11.3% precision and 4.7% correctness.

This paper proposes a technique improving performance using word senses and user feedback in web information retrieval, compared with the retrieval based on ambiguous user query and index. Disambiguation using word senses is very important processing for improving performance by eliminating the irrelevant pages from the result. According to semantic categories of nouns which are used as index for retrieval, we build the word sense knowledge-base and categorize the web pages. It can improve the performance of retrieval system with user feedback deciding the query sense and information seeking behavior to web pages.

In semantic information retrieval, we first need to build domain ontology and second, we need to convert the users' search keywords into a standard query such as SPARQL. In this paper, we propose a method that can automatically convert the users' search keywords into the SPARQL queries. Furthermore, our method can ensure effective performance in a specific domain such as law. Our method constructs the keyword history ontology by associating each keyword with a series of information when there are multiple keywords. The constructed ontology will convert keyword history ontology into SPARQL query. The automatic transformation method of SPARQL query proposed in the paper is converted into the query statement that is deemed the most appropriate by the user's intended keywords. Our study is based on the existing legal ontology constructions that supplement and reconstruct schema and use it as experiment. In addition, design and implementation of a semantic search tool based on legal domain and conduct experiments. Based on the method proposed in this paper, the semantic information retrieval based on the keyword is made possible in a legal domain. And, such a method can be applied to the other domains.

We propose, in this paper, a new query expansion technique with term reweighting. All terms in the documents feedbacked from a user, excluding stopwords, are selected as candidate terms for query expansion and reweighted using the relevance degree which is calculated from the term-distribution similarity between a candidate term and each term in initial query. The term-distribution similarity of two terms is a measure on how similar their occurrence distributions in relevant documents are. The terms to be actually expanded are selected using the relevance degree and combined with initial query to construct an expanded query. We use KT-set 1.0 and KT-set 2.0 to evaluate performance and compare our method with two methods, one with no relevance feedback and the other with Dec-Hi method which is similar to our method. based on recall and precision.
