Fast Nearest Neighbor Search with Keywords

Fast Nearest Neighbor Search with Keywords Conventional spatial queries, such as range search and nearest neighbor retrieval, involve only conditions on objects’ geometric properties. Today, many modern applications call for novel forms of queries that aim to find objects satisfying both a spatial predicate, and a predicate on their associated texts. For example, instead of considering all the restaurants, a nearest neighbor query […]


Delivery-Oriented Hierarchical Predictive Control Of An Irrigation Canal Event-Driven Versus Time-Driven Approaches

Delivery-Oriented Hierarchical Predictive Control of an Irrigation Canal: Event-Driven Versus Time-Driven Approaches Abstract: In this paper, we present the concept of a hierarchical predictive controller used for irrigation canals. The motivation behind this paper is the need in the field of irrigation to deliver water to farmers fast, but with minimal resources involved, as the […]
