Answering XML queries using materialized views revisited
Answering queries using views is a well-established technique in databases. In this context, two outstanding problems can be formulated. The first one consists in deciding whethe...

Statistical Machine Translation for Query Expansion in Answer Retrieval
We present an approach to query expansion in answer retrieval that uses Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) techniques to bridge the lexical gap between questions and answers. S...

ProApproX: a lightweight approximation query processor over probabilistic trees
We demonstrate a system for querying probabilistic XML documents with simple XPath queries. A user chooses between a variety of query answering techniques, both exact and approxim...

Scalable Probabilistic Databases with Factor Graphs and MCMC
Incorporating probabilities into the semantics of incomplete databases has posed many challenges, forcing systems to sacrifice modeling power, scalability, or treatment of relatio...

Materialized Views in Probabilistic Databases for Information Exchange and Query Optimization
Views over probabilistic data contain correlations between tuples, and the current approach is to capture these correlations using explicit lineage. In this paper we propose an al...
