Efficient processing of top-k spatial keyword queries
TL;DR: A novel index to improve the performance of top-k spatial keyword queries named Spatial Inverted Index (S2I), which maps each distinct term to a set of objects containing the term and can be retrieved efficiently in decreasing order of keyword relevance and spatial proximity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of large-scale analytical query processing in MapReduce
TL;DR: A taxonomy is presented for categorizing existing research on MapReduce improvements according to the specific problem they target, and interesting directions for future parallel data processing systems are outlined.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Reverse top-k queries
TL;DR: In this paper, the reverse top-k query is studied from the point of view of the product manufacturer, which is essential for manufacturers to assess the potential market and impact of their products based on the competition.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Top-k spatial keyword queries on road networks
TL;DR: This paper addresses the challenging problem of processing top-k spatial keyword queries on road networks where the distance between the query location and the spatial object is the shortest path, and formalizes the new query type, and presents novel indexing structures and algorithms that are able to process such queries efficiently.
Book ChapterDOI
Fast group recommendations by applying user clustering
TL;DR: This paper proposes an extensive model for group recommendations that exploits recommendations for items that similar users to the group members liked in the past by leveraging the power of a top-k algorithm.
