We study the problem of answering spatial queries in databases where objects exist with some uncertainty and they are associated with an existential probability. The goal of a thre...

Complex networks, such as biological, social, and communication networks, often entail uncertainty, and thus, can be modeled as probabilistic graphs. Similar to the problem of sim...

This paper proposes a new problem, called superseding nearest neighbor search, on uncertain spatial databases, where each object is described by a multidimensional probability den...

Group nearest neighbor (GNN) queries are a relatively new type of operations in spatial database applications. Different from a traditional kNN query which specifies a single quer...
