Similarity Joins of Text with Incomplete Information Formats
Similarity join over text is important in text retrieval and query. Due to the incomplete formats of information representation, such as abbreviation and short word, similarity joins should address an asymmetric feature that these incomplete formats may contain only partial information of their original representation. Current approaches, including cosine similarity with q-grams, can hardly deal with the asymmetric feature of similarity between words and their incomplete formats. In order to find this type of incomplete format information with asymmetric features, we develop a new similarity join algorithm, namely IJoin. A novel matching scheme is proposed to identify the overlap between two entities with incomplete formats. Other than q-grams, we reconnect the sequence of words in a string to reserve the abbreviated information. Based on the asymmetric features of similar entities with incomplete formats, we adopt a new similarity function. Furthermore, an efficient algorithm is implemented by using the join operation in SQL, which reduces pairs of tuples in similarity comparison. The experimental evaluation demonstrates the effectiveness and the efficiency of our approach.

Summarization Graph Indexing: Beyond Frequent Structure-Based Approach
Graph is an important data structure to model complex structural data, such as chemical compounds, proteins, and XML documents. Among many graph data-based applications, sub-graph search is a key problem, which is defined as given a query Q, retrieving all graphs containing Q as a sub-graph in the graph database. Most existing sub-graph search methods try to filter out false positives (graphs that are not possible in the results) as many as possible by indexing some frequent sub-structures in graph database, such as [20, 22, 4, 23]. However, due to ignoring the relationships between sub-structures, these methods still admit a high percentage of false positives. In this paper, we propose a novel concept, Summarization Graph, which is a complete graph and captures most topology information of the original graph, such as sub-structures and their relationships. Based on Summarization Graphs, we convert the filtering problem into retrieving objects with set-valued attributes. Moreover, we build an efficient signature file-based index to improve the filtering process. We prove theoretically that the pruning power of our method is larger than existing structure-based approaches. Finally, we show by extensive experimental study on real and synthetic data sets that the size of candidate set generated by Summarization Graph-based approach is only about 50% of that left by existing graph indexing methods, and the total response time of our method is reduced 2-10 times.

Monochromatic and bichromatic reverse skyline search over uncertain databases
Reverse skyline queries over uncertain databases have many important applications such as sensor data monitoring and business planning. Due to the existence of uncertainty in many real-world data, answering reverse skyline queries accurately and efficiently over uncertain data has become increasingly important. In this paper, we model the probabilistic reverse skyline query on uncertain data, in both monochromatic and bichromatic cases, and propose effective pruning methods to reduce the search space of query processing. Moreover, efficient query procedures have been presented seamlessly integrating the proposed pruning methods. Extensive experiments have demonstrated the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed approach with various experimental settings.

Spotting Significant Changing Subgraphs in Evolving Graphs
Graphs are popularly used to model structural relationships between objects. In many application domains such as social networks, sensor networks and telecommunication, graphs evolve over time. In this paper, we study a new problem of discovering the subgraphs that exhibit significant changes in evolving graphs. This problem is challenging since it is hard to define changing regions that are closely related to the actual changes (i.e., additions/deletions of edges/nodes) in graphs. We formalize the problem, and design an efficient algorithm that is able to identify the changing subgraphs incrementally. Our experimental results on real datasets show that our solution is very efficient and the resultant subgraphs are of high quality.

A Concise Representation of Range Queries
With the advance of wireless communication technology, it is quite common for people to view maps or get related services from the handheld devices, such as mobile phones and PDAs. Range queries, as one of the most commonly used tools, are often posed by the users to retrieve needful information from a spatial database. However, due to the limits of communication bandwidth and hardware power of handheld devices, displaying all the results of a range query on a handheld device is neither communication efficient nor informative to the users. This is simply because that there are often too many results returned from a range query. In view of this problem, we present a novel idea that a concise representation of a specified size for the range query results, while incurring minimal information loss, shall be computed and returned to the user. Such a concise range query not only reduces communication costs, but also offers better usability to the users, providing an opportunity for interactive exploration. The usefulness of the concise range queries is confirmed by comparing it with other possible alternatives, such as sampling and clustering. Then we propose algorithms to find a good concise representation.

Non-Threshold based Event Detection for 3D Environment Monitoring in Sensor Networks
Event detection is a crucial task for wireless sensor network applications, especially environment monitoring. Existing approaches for event detection are mainly based on some predefined threshold values, and thus are often inaccurate and incapable of capturing complex events. For example, in coal mine monitoring scenarios, gas leakage or water osmosis can hardly be described by the overrun of specified attribute thresholds, but some complex pattern in the full-scale view of the environmental data. To address this issue, we propose a non-threshold based approach for the real 3D sensor monitoring environment. We employ energy-efficient methods to collect a time series of data maps from the sensor network and detect complex events through matching the gathered data to spatio-temporal data patterns. Finally, we conduct trace driven simulations to prove the efficacy and efficiency of this approach on detecting events of complex phenomena from real-life records.

Compressed pattern matching in DNA sequences
We propose derivative Boyer-Moore (d-BM), a new compressed pattern matching algorithm in DNA sequences. This algorithm is based on the Boyer-Moore method, which is one of the most popular string matching algorithms. In this approach, we compress both DNA sequences and patterns by using two bits to represent each A, T, C, G character. Experiments indicate that this compressed pattern matching algorithm searches long DNA patterns (length > 50) more than 10 times faster than the exact match routine of the software package Agrep, which is known as the fastest pattern matching tool. Moreover, compression of DNA sequences by this method gives a guaranteed space saving of 75%. In part the enhanced speed of the algorithm is due to the increased efficiency of the Boyer-Moore method resulting from an increase in alphabet size from 4 to 256.

The Research and Application of Human Detection Based on Support Vector Machine Using in Intelligent Video Surveillance System
This paper presented a special design and implementation of human detection based on SVM (support vector machine) and this method is used in intelligent video surveillance system. In order to simplify the design of the SVM classifier and improve efficiency of machine learning, both a grid vector representation and a center radiating vector representation are proposed to abstract features of the object. The sample data is obtained through processing and analysis including human and no-human which forms the training input to SVM. Finally, we used the trained recognizer to identify whether there is somebody broken into the object region. If there is, the automatic warning device gives the alarm, which guarantees a real-time surveillance.

QoS-aware routing based on bandwidth estimation for mobile ad hoc networks
Routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have been explored extensively in recent years. Much of this work is targeted at finding a feasible route from a source to a destination without considering current network traffic or application requirements. Therefore, the network may easily become overloaded with too much traffic and the application has no way to improve its performance under a given network traffic condition. While this may be acceptable for data transfer, many real-time applications require quality-of-service (QoS) support from the network. We believe that such QoS support can be achieved by either finding a route to satisfy the application requirements or offering network feedback to the application when the requirements cannot be met. We propose a QoS-aware routing protocol that incorporates an admission control scheme and a feedback scheme to meet the QoS requirements of real-time applications. The novel part of this QoS-aware routing protocol is the use of the approximate bandwidth estimation to react to network traffic. Our approach implements these schemes by using two bandwidth estimation methods to find the residual bandwidth available at each node to support new streams. We simulate our QoS-aware routing protocol for nodes running the IEEE 802.11 medium access control. Results of our experiments show that the packet delivery ratio increases greatly, and packet delay and energy dissipation decrease significantly, while the overall end-to-end throughput is not impacted, compared with routing protocols that do not provide QoS support.
