Let (L, ∗) be a semilattice, and let c : L → [0, ∞) be monotone and increasing on L. We state the Minimum Join problem as: given size n sub-collection X of L and integer k w...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach for estimating the record selectivities of database queries. The real attribute value distribution is adaptively approximated by a curve...
We address the problem of computing approximate answers to continuous sliding-window joins over data streams when the available memory may be insufficient to keep the entire join...
Abstract. We consider the problem of accurately estimating the number of approximate XML answers for a given query, and propose an efficient method that (1) accurately computes sel...
High dimensional data sets are encountered in many modern database applications. The usual approach is to construct a summary of the data set through a lossy compression technique...
