Query Answering and Containment for Regular Path Queries under Distortions
Abstract. We give a general framework for approximate query processing in semistructured databases. We focus on regular path queries, which are the integral part of most of the que...

Efficient top-k count queries over imprecise duplicates
We propose efficient techniques for processing various TopK count queries on data with noisy duplicates. Our method differs from existing work on duplicate elimination in two sign...
