6. The log data structure
• An append-only ordered sequence
of records.
• In DBs: log shipping protocols to
transmit portions of log to slave
replica databases
• In distributed systems: the State
Machine Replication Principle: If two
identical, deterministic processes
begin in the same state and get the
same inputs in the same order, they
will produce the same output and
end in the same state.

7. Why database management systems
• An interface between the database and
application programs, ensuring that data
is consistently organized and remains
easily accessible.
• Manages: 1. the data 2. the engine that
allows data to be accessed, locked and
modified 3. the database schema, which
defines the database’s logical structure.

8. Why database management systems
• Provides:
• Data abstraction and independence; Data security; A locking mechanism for concurrent access;
• An efficient handler to balance the needs of multiple applications using the same data;
• The ability to swiftly recover from crashes and errors, including restartability and recoverability;
• Robust data integrity capabilities; Logging and auditing of activity;
• Simple access using a standard application programming interface (API);
• Uniform administration procedures for data.
• Question:
• Does your application need all this? Typically yes if concurrent insert/update accesses, distributed
reads…

9. History
• 1960s: Navigational DBs
• 1970s-1980s: SQL, normalisation and OLTP, transactions
• 1990s: object oriented DBs and OLAP, warehousing
• 2000s: NoSQL and the CAP theorem
• 2010s: newSQL, graph DBs, Big Data

10. Databases: a user’s view
• SQL and ACID: Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability
• Variety and NoSQL: MongoDB
• Volume and NoSQL: HBase, Cassandra
• Velocity and NoSQL: MonetDB, KairosDB
• NoSQL: bad at relationships —> Graph DBs: Neo4J
• The CAP theorem: Consistency, Availability, Partition tolerance

11. SQL vs NoSQL
[Lisa Vaas 2016]

12. DB indices
• Objective: sub-linear search (e.g. O(logN), O(1))
• E.g. bitmaps, keys/pointers to records, keys/pointers to blocks,
reverse indices.
• Implementations in terms of (balanced) trees, hashes, B+trees.
• Types:
• non-clustered: logical order only, multiple indices possible
• clustered: physical order too for efficiency,
a single clustered index per table.

13. KD Trees
• Binary space-partitioning trees in D dimensions
• For every non-leaf node: generate a splitting hyperplane that divides
the space into two half-spaces.
• Canonical construction: given all input points
• Cycles through the axes
• Split by the medians with respect to the current axis

14. LSH
• Locality-Sensitive Hashing: maximize probability of collision —
similar items end up in same bucket.
• Applications in near-duplicate detection and “fingerprinting”,
similarity nearest neighbor search, hierarchical clustering.
• E.g. by random projection: use a random hyperplane to hash
vectors.

15. Inverted indices
• Forward index: document —> content
• Inverted index: content —> document / location
• Record level, “Word” level
• Allows fast search (increases insertion cost!): queries can be
resolved by jumping to the “word” id in the inverted index.

The patches were annotated with a semantic label by using the Search Engine based on
SVM tool and user supervision previously presented in section 5.1. The semantic labels
associated to the selected classes were previously described in Table 5.
In the following, we present some examples of retrieving TerraSAR-X structures using
both images. Table 11 displays the query images and the 20 top retrieved images. Some
quality metrics (Precision and Recall) were computed from these results and they are
summarized in Table 12.
