Supporting top-k queries over distributed collections of schemaless XML data poses two challenges. While XML supports expressive query languages such as XPath and XQuery, these la...
This paper presents a unifying framework for the modeling of asynchronous pipeline circuits. A pipeline protocol is captured in a graph-based model which defines the partial order...
Abstract. Recently, the database and AI research communities have paid increased attention to ontologies. The main motivating reason is that ontologies promise solutions for comple...
This paper introduces an novel framework for speech understanding using extended context-free grammars (ECFGs) by combining statistical methods and rule based knowledge. By only us...
Abstract. Existing algorithms for regular inference (aka automata learning) allows to infer a finite state machine by observing the output that the machine produces in response to ...
