We consider the problem of learning a ranking function that maximizes a generalization of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney statistic on the training data. Relying on an -accurate approxim...

In this paper we present a local fitting algorithm for converting smooth planar curves to Bsplines. For a smooth planar curve a set of points together with their tangent vectors a...
While traditional database systems optimize for performance on one-shot queries, emerging large-scale monitoring applications require continuous tracking of complex aggregates and...

Range searching is a well known problem in the area of geometric data structures. We consider this problem in the context of approximation, where an approximation parameter ε >...
Computing multidimensional aggregates in high dimensions is a performance bottleneck for many OLAP applications. Obtaining the exact answer to an aggregation query can be prohibit...
