The PvS-Index: An Indexing Method for Local Image Descriptors
… dimensional spaces, the performance of these indexing structures degraded drastically, making a sequential scan still the best choice in respect of performance. In this thesis I present the PvS-Index, a new approximate indexing technique for this kind of high dimensional data. Due to its low …

A New Method of Ceramic Economic Indexing in Historical Archaeology with a Case Study from Springfield, Missouri
… have applied George Miller's ceramic indexing method to the historical archaeological record to quantify ceramic expenditure patterns. However, Miller's method is suited primarily to antebellum assemblages of ceramic artifacts. In this study, I developed a new ceramic economic indexing …

A Field Validation of Dam Indexing Methods in Mississippi
Indexing methods are applied to dam inventories throughout the United States to assist in prioritizing resources to maintain aging dam structures. Three published indexing methods and one proposed method were applied to 24 dams through Mississippi. The majority of dams in Mississippi have little to …

Técnicas de particionamiento multidimensional basadas en índices multiatributo en bases de datos paralelas
… a balanced way by means of a new multi-attribute indexing method, called the Q-tree. In this thesis dissertation, we present the ideas which have guided the stablishment of the Q-tree. In addition, we define the structures and algorithms for manipulating the Q-tree, we introduce several …
