Privacy models such as k-anonymity and -diversity typically offer an aggregate or scalar notion of the privacy property that holds collectively on the entire anonymized data set....
With more and more natural language text stored in databases, handling respective query predicates becomes very important. Optimizing queries with predicates includes (sub)string ...
In the present study, an efficient strategy for retrieving texture images from large texture databases is introduced and studied within a distributional-statistical framework. Our...

We give the first optimal algorithm for estimating the number of distinct elements in a data stream, closing a long line of theoretical research on this problem begun by Flajolet...
A fundamental problem in data management is to draw a sample of a large data set, for approximate query answering, selectivity estimation, and query planning. With large, streamin...
