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...
We consider ranking and clustering problems related to the aggregation of inconsistent information. Ailon, Charikar, and Newman [1] proposed randomized constant factor approximatio...
Abstract. In classical approaches to knowledge representation, reasoners are assumed to derive all the logical consequences of their knowledge base. As a result, reasoning in the ļ...
Abstract We describe a method to approximate a segment of the intersection curve of two implicitly deļ¬ned surfaces by a rational parametric curve. Starting from an initial soluti...
Pair approximations have often been used to predict equilibrium conditions in spatially-explicit epidemiological and ecological systems. In this work, we investigate whether this ...
