Abstract. Often, qualitative values have an ordering, such as (veryshort, short, medium-height, tall) or a hierarchical level, such as (TheWorld, Europe, Spain, Madrid), which are ...
ProbLog is a probabilistic framework that extends Prolog with probabilistic facts. To compute the probability of a query, the complete SLD proof tree of the query is collected as a...
We study the problem of finding efficient equivalent viewbased rewritings of relational queries, focusing on query optimization using materialized views under the assumption that ...
The revelation principle is a cornerstone tool in mechanism design. It states that one can restrict attention, without loss in the designer’s objective, to mechanisms in which A...
The Ant-Miner algorithm, first proposed by Parpinelli and colleagues, applies an ant colony optimization heuristic to the classification task of data mining to discover an ordered...
