Abstract— Data synopsis is a lossy compressed representation of data stored into databases that helps the query optimizer to speed up the query process, e.g. time to retrieve the...
A bivariate symmetric backwards recursion is of the form d[m, n] = w0(d[m− 1, n]+d[m, n−1])+ω1(d[m−r1, n−s1]+d[m−s1, n−r1])+· · ·+ωk(d[m−rk, n−sk] +d[m−sk, ...
CASE (Computer Aided Software Engineering) tools are believed to have played a critical role in improving software productivity and quality by assisting tasks in software developme...
We consider the problem of learning to rank relevant and novel documents so as to directly maximize a performance metric called Expected Global Utility (EGU), which has several de...
Many participatory sensing applications use data collected by participants to construct a public model of a system or phenomenon. For example, a health application might compute a...
