A structured approach to parallel programming allows to construct applications by composing skeletons, i.e., recurring patterns of task- and data-parallelism. First academic and co...
All systems, regardless of how carefully they have been constructed, suffer failures. This paper focuses on developing a formal understanding of failure with respect to system imp...
Abstract. In many applications of data mining a - sometimes considerable - part of the data values is missing. This may occur because the data values were simply never entered into...
We investigate an inherent limitation of top-down decision tree induction in which the continuous partitioning of the instance space progressively lessens the statistical support o...
Machine learning techniques such as tree induction have become accepted tools for developing generalisations of large data sets, typically for use with production rule systems in p...
