Software & Data

Software

The research within several of our projects incorporates creation of fully operating prototypes of index and search structures and applications. The software is typically written in Java, individual modules are based on the same platform and can cooperate. Majority of the SW packages are accessible at Bitbucket DISA Lab.
  • MESSIF (Metric Similarity Search Implementation Framework) – framework designed to support the process of building prototypes of metric-based indexeding techniques
  • M-Tree – implementation of famous dynamic indexing structure for metric-based searching
  • D-Index – implementation of a hashing schema for similarity queries including similarity joins
  • M-Index – a precise and approximate metric-based index based on principles of hashing data to a single-dimensional domain
  • SMF – Subsequence Matching Framework (SMF) is a versatile framework for prototyping, building and testing applications employing subsequence matching approaches.
  • PPP-Codes – a new fast approximate metric-based index
  • SimCloud and SimCloud MapDB – projects that build search algorithms over several indexes

Project-dedicated software

Improving Treatments in Cerebral-Palsy Children using Artificial Intelligence
The GaitQualityAnalyzer software has been developed under the project Improving Treatments in Cerebral-Palsy Children using Artificial Intelligence (No. MUNI/G/1585/2019) within the interdisciplinary research projects programme funded by the Grant Agency of Masaryk University.
Efficient Searching in Large Biometric Data
The following three pieces of software have been developed under the project Efficient Searching in Large Biometric Data (No. VG20122015073) within the security-research programme (BV II/2-VS) funded by Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic.
  • FaceMatch – a face retrieval technology integrating multiple face detection and matching methods
  • MotionMatch – a person identification technology based on the way people walk
  • MMPI (Multi-modal Person Identification) – a multi-modal person identification technology based on similarity of faces and the way people walk

Data

Data collections that can be used for evaluation purposes are an important asset for the scientific community. In the course of our research of image retrieval techniques, we have created a large collection of images and image descriptors, that we offer to other research groups for evaluation and benchmarking:
