We propose a fast methodology for encoding graphs with information-theoretically minimum numbers of bits. Specifically, a graph with property π is called a π-graph. If π satis...
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
—Association rules are useful for determining correlations between attributes of a relation and have applications in the marketing, financial, and retail sectors. Furthermore, op...
For a weighted, undirected graph G = V;E where jVj = n and jEj = m, we examine the single most vital edge with respect to two measurements related to all-pairs shortest paths APSP....
The nearest- or near-neighbor query problems arise in a large variety of database applications, usually in the context of similarity searching. Of late, there has been increasing ...
