Drawing Database Schemas

by Giuseppe Di Battista, Walter Didimo, Maurizio Patrignani, Maurizio Pizzonia - SOFTWARE - PRACTICE AND EXPERIENCE , 2002
"... A wide number of practical applications would benefit from automatically generated graphical representations of database schemas, in which tables are represented by boxes, and table attributes correspond to distinct stripes inside each table. Links, connecting attributes of two different tables, rep ..."

Data Mining: Concepts and Techniques

by Jiawei Han, Micheline Kamber , 2000
"... Our capabilities of both generating and collecting data have been increasing rapidly in the last several decades. Contributing factors include the widespread use of bar codes for most commercial products, the computerization of many business, scientific and government transactions and managements, a ..."

warehouses, and other massive information repositories. Data mining is a multidisciplinary field, drawing work from areas including database technology, artificial intelligence, machine learning, neural networks, statistics, pattern recognition, knowledge based systems, knowledge acquisition, information

Learning Collaborative Information Filters

by Daniel Billsus, Michael J. Pazzani - In Proc. 15th International Conf. on Machine Learning , 1998
"... Predicting items a user would like on the basis of other users’ ratings for these items has become a well-established strategy adopted by many recommendation services on the Internet. Although this can be seen as a classification problem, algo-rithms proposed thus far do not draw on results from the ..."

A resource-based perspective on corporate environmental performance and profitability

by Michael V. Russo, Paul A. Fouts, Neil Fargher, David Levy, John Mahon, Alan Meyer, Peter Mills - Acad. Management J , 1997
"... Drawing on the resource-based view of the firm, we posited that environmental performance and economic performance are positively linked and that industry growth moderates the relationship, with the returns to environmental performance higher in high-growth industries. We tested these hypotheses wit ..."

Graph Drawing

by Roberto Tamassia - Lecture Notes in Computer Science , 1997
"... INTRODUCTION Graph drawing addresses the problem of constructing geometric representations of graphs, and has important applications to key computer technologies such as software engineering, database systems, visual interfaces, and computer-aided-design. Research on graph drawing has been conducte ..."

Automated Drawing of Metabolic Pathways

by Peter D. Karp, Suzanne Paley , 1994
"... The EcoCyc system consists of a knowledge base that describes the genes and intermediary metabolism of E. coli, and a graphical user interface (GUI) for accessing that knowledge. This paper presents algorithms for drawing metabolic pathways by dynamically querying the underlying knowledge base. Thes ..."
Abstract - Cited by 50 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
. These algorithms provide a foundation for building graphical user interfaces to metabolic databases. Pathway drawing is a graph-layout problem. Our algorithms draw pathways of several different topologies, including linear, cyclic, and branching pathways, as well as larger groupings of such pathways

RETRIEVING MOULD DRAWINGS BY CONTENT

by Manuel J. Fonseca, Alfredo Ferreira, Joaquim A. Jorge
"... While drawing a mould for a new design, draftspeople often consult previous projects, searching for something similar. This way they can use solutions already developed in the past, thus reducing the time required to design a new mould. However, current systems do not make this an easy task. We deve ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
developed a new approach for content-based retrieval that supports automatic indexation of technical drawing databases and later recovering information by using structural descriptions of mould designs. In this paper, we describe a prototype that is able to retrieve technical mould drawings by content

Content-Based Retrieval of Technical Drawings

by Manuel J. Fonseca, Alfredo Ferreira, Joaquim A. Jorge - SPECIAL ISSUE OF INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER APPLICATIONS IN TECHNOLOGY (IJCAT) "MODELS , 2004
"... This paper presents a new approach to classify, index and retrieve technical draw-ings by content. Our work uses spatial relationships, shape geometry and high-dimensional indexing mechanisms to retrieve complex drawings from CAD databases. This contrasts with conventional approaches which use mostl ..."

A Graph Layout Algorithm for Drawing Metabolic Pathways

by Moritz Becker, Isabel Rojas - Bioinformatics , 2001
"... Motivation: A large amount of data on metabolic pathways is available in databases. The ability to visualise the complex data dynamically would be useful for building more powerful research tools to access the databases. Metabolic pathways are typically modelled as graphs in which nodes represent ch ..."

Emotional speech: Towards a new generation of databases

by Ellen Douglas-Cowie , Nick Campbell , Roddy Cowie , Peter Roach , 2003
"... Research on speech and emotion is moving from a period of exploratory research into one where there is a prospect of substantial applications, notably in human–computer interaction. Progress in the area relies heavily on the development of appropriate databases. This paper addresses four main issues ..."
Abstract - Cited by 116 (12 self) - Add to MetaCart
appropriate databases is being addressed in three major recent projects––the Reading–Leeds project, the Belfast project and the CREST–ESPproject. From these and other studies the paper draws together the tools and methods that have been developed, addresses the problems that arise and indicates the future
