The family of threshold algorithm (i.e., TA) has been widely studied for efficiently computing top-k queries. TA uses a sort-merge framework that assumes data lists are pre-sorted...
Tool path generation is one of the most complex problems in Computer Aided Manufacturing. Although some efficient strategies have been developed, most of them are only useful for s...
We consider the problem of encrypting structured data (e.g., a web graph or a social network) in such a way that it can be efficiently and privately queried. For this purpose, we ...
Despite the recent advances in planning with MDPs, the problem of generating good policies is still hard. This paper describes a way to generate policies in MDPs by (1) determiniz...
Credit scoring is a method of modelling potential risk of credit applications. Traditionally, logistic regression, linear regression and discriminant analysis are the most popular...
