Modified Distance Calculation in Generational Distance and Inverted Generational Distance

Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2015
In this paper, we propose the use of modified distance calculation in generational distance (GD) and inverted generational distance (IGD). These performance indicators evaluate the quality of an obtained solution set in comparison with a pre-specified reference point set.

Distance and the ‘Reaction’ to Distance as a Function of Distance

Journal of Leisure Research, 1974
“Distance and the ‘Reaction’ to Distance as a Function of Distance” is a phrase designed to emphasize the need for more analysis of the behavioral significance of gravity functions.

Distance learning

CHI '99 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI '99, 1998
This tutorial covers how to design and deliver a distance learning class. The motivation for distance learning programs is presented, along with the selection, deployment, and use of distance learning technologies. We examine how preparing and teaching a distance learning class is different from a face-to-face class and how to evaluate the ...

Distance from a distance: Psychological distance reduces sensitivity to any further psychological distance.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2013
What is the difference between far and further? Investigations into such psychological distancing--removal from an egocentric reference point--have suggested similarities between geographical space, time, probability, and social distance. We draw on these similarities to propose that experiencing any kind of distance will reduce sensitivity to any ...

Graph Distance and Euclidean Distance on the Grid

1990
Given a connected graph G = (V, E),V = Z2, on the lattice points of the plane, let d G (p, q) and d(p,q) denote the graph distance and the Euclidean distance between p and q respectively. In this note we prove that for every є > 0 there is a graph G = Gє and a constant d = dє such that $$\left| {{d}_{G}}(p,q)-d(p,q) \right|

Death of distance and the distance puzzle

Economics Letters, 2012
Abstract Despite the onset of globalization, year-by-year cross-country regressions of the gravity model usually suggest that the impediment of geographical distance on bilateral trade is rising, and not declining, over time. This effect of distance is dubbed the distance puzzle.

Optimal Distance Bounds for the Mahalanobis Distance

2013
The Mahalanobis distance, or quadratic form distance, is a distance measure commonly used for feature-based similarity search in scenarios where features are correlated. For efficient query processing on such data effective distance-based spatial pruning techniques are required.

Flickr distance

Proceedings of the 16th ACM international conference on Multimedia, 2008
This paper presents Flickr distance, which is a novel measurement of the relationship between semantic concepts (objects, scenes) in visual domain. For each concept, a collection of images are obtained from Flickr, based on which the improved latent topic based visual language model is built to capture the visual characteristic of this concept.
