ProApproX: a lightweight approximation query processor over probabilistic trees
We demonstrate a system for querying probabilistic XML documents with simple XPath queries. A user chooses between a variety of query answering techniques, both exact and approxim...

A Model of Uncertainty for Near-Duplicates in Document Reference Networks
We introduce a model of uncertainty where documents are not uniquely identified in a reference network, and some links may be incorrect. It generalizes the probabilistic approach ...

Approximate Decomposition: A Method for Bounding and Estimating Probabilistic and Deterministic Queries
In this paper, we introduce a method for approximating the solution to inference and optimization tasks in uncertain and deterministic reasoning. Such tasks are in general intract...

Approximating the top-m passages in a parallel question answering system
We examine the problem of retrieving the top-m ranked items from a large collection, randomly distributed across an n-node system. In order to retrieve the top m overall, we must ...

Partial Selection Query in Peer-to-Peer Databases
In this paper, we propose DBSampler, a query execution mechanism to answer "partial selection" queries in peerto-peer databases. A partial selection query is an arbitrar...
