: Problem statement: For a sensor network comprising autonomous and self-organizing data sources, efficient similarity-based search for semantic-rich resources (such as video data)...
In order to overcome the limitations of deductive logic-based approaches to deriving operational knowledge from ontologies, especially when data come from distributed sources, indu...
View materialization is a central issue in logical design of data warehouses since it is one of the most powerful techniques to improve the response to the workload. Most approach...
We survey the use of weighted finite-state transducers (WFSTs) in speech recognition. We show that WFSTs provide a common and natural representation for HMM models, context-depend...
We describe efficient techniques for construction of large term co-occurrence graphs, and investigate an application to the discovery of numerous fine-grained (specific) topics. A...
