Performance of a Risk Index for Advanced Proximal Colorectal Neoplasia Among a Racially/Ethnically Diverse Patient Population (Risk Index for Advanced Proximal Neoplasia)

American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2011
Tailoring the use of screening colonoscopy based on the risk of advanced proximal neoplasia (APN) has been advocated as a strategy for reducing demand and optimizing effectiveness. A 7-point index based on age, sex, and distal findings at sigmoidoscopy has been proposed that stratifies individuals into low, intermediate, and high-risk categories.

Polyphasic Metric Index: Reaching the Practical Limits of Proximity Searching

2012
Some metric indexes, like the pivot based family, can natively trade space for query time. Other indexes may have a small memory footprint and still outperform the pivot based approach; but are unable to increase the memory usage to boost the query time.

Adapting of string indexing systems for retrieval using proximity operators

Information Processing & Management, 1988
Abstract This article explores the idea of using a conventional string indexing source description, together with a special phrase generator, to generate multiple descriptor phrases for inclusion in a database record for online retrieval. For use with proximity operators, these multiple descriptor phrases should attempt to meet such objectives as ...

Fixed Height Queries Tree Permutation Index for Proximity Searching

2017
Similarity searching consists in retrieving from a database the objects, also known as nearest neighbors, that are most similar to a given query, it is a crucial task to several applications of the pattern recognition problem. In this paper we propose a new technique to reduce the number of comparisons needed to locate the nearest neighbors of a query.
