In this paper, we present an integrated system for news video retrieval. The proposed system incorporates both speech and visual information in the search mechanisms. The initial ...
We introduce and study a new class of queries that we refer to as ACMA (arithmetic constraints on multiple attributes) queries. Such combinatorial queries require the simultaneous...
Data mining is an interactive and iterative process. It is very likely that a user will execute a series of similar queries differing in pattern constraints and mining parameters,...
Answering queries posed over knowledge bases is a central problem in knowledge representation and database theory. In databases, query containment is one of the important query op...
Abstract. Constraint databases that can be described by boolean combinations of polynomial inequalities over the reals have received ample research attention. In particular, the ex...
