A statistical database (StatDB) retrieves only aggregate results, as opposed to individual tuples. This paper investigates the construction of a privacy preserving StatDB that can...
This paper introduces the Tuple Graph (TuG) synopses, a new class of data summaries that enable accurate selectivity estimates for complex relational queries. The proposed summari...
Selecting promising queries is the key to effective active learning. In this paper, we investigate selection techniques for the task of learning an equivalence relation where the ...
This paper introduces a composite relevance feedback approach for image retrieval using transaction-based and SVM-based learning. A transaction repository is dynamically constructe...
Abstract. In emerging data stream applications, data sources are typically distributed. Evaluating multi-join queries over streams from different sources may incur large communica...
