  • An XML Document Comparison Framework 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (2001)
    As the Web continues to grow and evolve, more and more information is being placed in structurally rich documents, XML documents in particular, so as to improve the efficiency of similarity clustering, information retrieval ...
  • Towards Multimedia Fragmentation 
    Saad, Samir; Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (Springer-Verlag, 2006)
    Database fragmentation is a process for reducing irrelevant data accesses by grouping data frequently accessed together in dedicated segments. In this paper, we address multimedia database fragmentation by extending existing ...

    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (Springer, 2007)
    As the Web continues to grow and evolve, more and more information is being placed in structurally rich documents, XML documents in particular, so as to improve the efficiency of similarity clustering, information retrieval ...
  • A hybrid approach for XML similarity 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (Springer, 2007)
    In the past few years, XML has been established as an effective means for information management, and has been widely exploited for complex data representation. Owing to an unparalleled increasing use of the XML standard, ...
  • Efficient XML Structural Similarity Detection using Sub-tree Commonalities 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (Elsevier, 2007-01)
    Developing efficient techniques for comparing XML-based documents becomes essential in the database and information retrieval communities. Various algorithms for comparing hierarchically structured data, e.g. XML documents, ...
  • Towards Efficient Horizontal Multimedia Database Fragmentation using Semantic-based Predicates Implication 
    Getahun, Fekade; Tekli, Joe; Atnafu, Solomon; Chbeir, Richard (2007-01)
    Partitioning techniques are traditionally used in distributed system design to reduce accesses to irrelevant information by grouping data frequently accessed together in specific fragments. Here, we address the primary ...
  • The use of semantic-based predicates implication to improve horizontal multimedia database fragmentation 
    Getahun, Fekade; Tekli, Joe; Atnafu, Solomon; Chbeir, Richard (ACM, 2007-09-28)
    Database fragmentation allows reducing irrelevant data accesses by grouping data frequently accessed together in dedicated segments. In this paper, we address multimedia database fragmentation to take into account the rich ...
  • XS3: a system for similarity evaluation in multimedia-based heterogeneous XML repositories 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (ACM, 2008-10-26)
    Just as in the real world, plants are important objects in virtual world for creating pleasant and realistic environments, especially those involving natural scenes. As such, much effort has been made in realistic modeling ...
  • Extensible user-based XML grammar matching 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (Springer, 2009)
    XML grammar matching has found considerable interest recently due to the growing number of heterogeneous XML documents on the web and the increasing need to integrate, and consequently search and retrieve XML data originated ...
  • Relating RSS News/Items 
    Getahun, Fekade; Chbeir, Richard; Viviani, Marco; Yetongnon, Kokou (Springer, 2009)
    Merging related RSS news (coming from one or different sources) is beneficial for end-users with different backgrounds (journalists, economists, etc.), particularly those accessing similar information. In this paper, we ...
  • Breakthroughs and Limitations of XML Grammar Similarity 
    Pagani, Margherita (2009)
    W3C’s XML (eXtensible Mark-up Language) has recently gained unparalleled importance as a fundamental standard for efficient data management and exchange. The use of XML covers data representation and storage, database ...
  • An overview on XML similarity : background, current trends and future directions 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Yetongnon, Kokou (2009-05-09)
    In recent years, XML has been established as a major means for information management, and has been broadly utilized for complex data representation (e.g. multimedia objects). Owing to an unparalleled increasing use of the ...
  • Semantic-based merging of RSS items 
    Taddesse, Fekade Getahun; Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Viviani, Marco; Yetongnon, Kokou (2009-12-02)
    Merging XML documents can be of key importance in several applications. For instance, merging the RSS news from same or different sources and providers can be beneficial for end-users in various scenarios. In this paper, ...
  • Toward Approximate GML Retrieval Based on Structural and Semantic Characteristics 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard; Ferri, Fernando; Grifoni, Patrizia (Springer, 2010)
    GML is emerging as the new standard for representing geographic information in GISs on the Web, allowing the encoding of structurally and semantically rich geographic data in self describing XML-based geographic entities. ...
