Probabilistic spatial power indexes
We present a generalization of spatial power indexes able to overcome their main limitations, namely: i) the excessive concentration of power measures; ii) the too high sensitivity to players’ location in the ideological space. Voters’ propensity to support an issue is modeled via a random utility function with two additive terms: the deterministic term accounts for voters’ preference-driven/pr...
متن کاملAir Indexes for Spatial Databases
SYNONYMS None DEFINITION Air indexes refer to indexes employed in wireless broadcast environments to address scalability issue and to facilitate power saving on mobile devices [3]. To retrieve a data object in wireless broadcast systems, a mobile client has to continuously monitor the broadcast channel until the data arrives. This will consume a lot of energy since the client has to remain acti...
متن کاملSophisticated Indexes for Implementing Probabilistic Expert Systems
Indexes are crucial for the efficient implementation of probabilistic expert systems. However, the indexes previously proposed, and the methods for applying them, are somewhat elementary. Moreover, recent experiments involving large Bayesian networks have resulted in the computer running out of memory. This further emphasizes the importance of indexes for probabilistic inference involving secon...
متن کاملSpatial Indexes for Simplicial and Cellular Meshes
We address the problem of performing spatial and topological queries on simplicial and cellular meshes. These arise in several application domains including 3D GIS, scientific visualization and finite element analysis. Firstly, we present a family of spatial indexes for tetrahedral meshes, that we call tetrahedral trees. Then, we present the PRstar octree, that is a combined spatial data struct...
متن کاملEfficient Spatial Indexes for Approximate Range Searching
Building efficient spatial indexes for range searching is a central problem in spatial databases. The R-tree has been a popular spatial index thanks to its simplicity, ability to answer various queries, and the flexibility to store spatial objects of different shapes. However, the R-tree is known to be a heuristic-based structure and no guarantees can be made on its query performance. In this p...
