Discovering the dependencies among the variables of a domain from examples is an important problem in optimization. Many methods have been proposed for this purpose, but few large...
Multi-valued dependencies (MVDs) are an important class of constraints that is fundamental for relational database design. Although modern applications increasingly require the su...
We propose a transaction model that provides a framework for transactions to cooperate without sacrificing serializability as a notion of correctness. Cooperation does not depend ...
Apriori Stochastic Dependency Detection (ASDD) is an algorithm for fast induction of stochastic logic rules from a database of observations made by an agent situated in an environm...
Object identification is a crucial step in most information systems. Nowadays, we have many different ways to identify entities such as surrogates, keys and object identifiers. Ho...
