Discovering the dependencies among the variables of a domain from examples is an important problem in optimization. Many methods have been proposed for this purpose, but few large...
Previous research into the efficiency of text retrieval systems has dealt primarily with methods that consider inverted lists in sequence; these methods are known as term-at-a-tim...
Mechanism design is the study of preference aggregation protocols that work well in the face of self-interested agents. We present the first general-purpose techniques for automa...

Skyline queries have gained considerable attention for multicriteria analysis of large-scale datasets. However, the skyline queries are known to return too many results for highdi...
Abstract. This work presents an experimental comparison of intersection algorithms for sorted sequences, including the recent algorithm of Baeza-Yates. This algorithm performs on a...
