An important issue arising from large scale data integration is how to efficiently select the top-K ranking answers from multiple sources while minimizing the transmission cost. T...
RankSVM (Herbrich et al, 2000; Joachims, 2002) is a pairwise method for designing ranking models. SVMLight is the only publicly available software for RankSVM. It is slow and, due ...
We investigate algorithms for evaluating moving window joins over pairs of unbounded streams. We introduce a unit-time-basis cost model to analyze the expected performance of thes...
A plethora of data sources contain data entities that could be ordered according to a variety of attributes associated with the entities. Such orderings result effectively in a ra...
We examine the problem of processing temporal joins in the presence of indexing schemes. Previous work on temporal joins has concentrated on non-indexed relations which were fully...
