The transformed Variational Bayes approximation
The purpose of this paper is to develop parameter transformation strategies that improve the accuracy of the Variational Bayes (VB) approximation. The idea is to find a transform...

Approximate Covering Detection among Content-Based Subscriptions Using Space Filling Curves
We consider a problem that arises during the propagation of subscriptions in a contentbased publish-subscribe system. Subscription covering is a promising optimization that reduce...

An Approximate Algorithm for Resource Allocation Using Combinatorial Auctions
Combinatorial Auctions (CAs), where users bid on combination of items, have emerged as a useful tool for resource allocation in distributed systems. However, two main difficulties...

Approximate Range-Sum Queries over Data Cubes Using Cosine Transform
In this research, we propose to use the discrete cosine transform to approximate the cumulative distributions of data cube cells' values. The cosine transform is known to have...
