The problem of information integration is discussed in the context of answering a query over the web. Querying the web requires that information from different web and other sourc...
Decision support applications involve complex queries on very large databases. Since response times should be small, query optimization is critical. Users typically view the data ...

We investigate the problem of active learning on a given tree whose nodes are assigned binary labels in an adversarial way. Inspired by recent results by Guillory and Bilmes, we c...
— A paramount challenge in probabilistic databases is the scalable computation of confidences of tuples in query results. This paper introduces an efficient secondary-storage o...
