Ranking queries are essential tools to process large amounts of probabilistic data that encode exponentially many possible deterministic instances. In many applications where unce...
As sensor networks increase in size and number, efficient techniques are required to process the very large data sets that they generate. Frequently, sensor networks monitor object...
This paper deals with the automated creation of geometric and photometric correct 3-D models of the world. Those models can be used for virtual reality, tele? presence, digital ci...
Data stored in a data warehouse are inherently multidimensional, but most data-pruning techniques (such as iceberg and top-k queries) are unidimensional. However, analysts need to...
Many applications depend on efficient management of large sets of distinct strings in memory. For example, during index construction for text databases a record is held for each d...
