Approximating predicates and expressive queries on probabilistic databases
We study complexity and approximation of queries in an expressive query language for probabilistic databases. The language studied supports the compositional use of confidence com...

Approximate query mapping: Accounting for translation closeness
Abstract In this paper we present a mechanism for approximately translating Boolean query constraints across heterogeneous information sources. Achieving the best translation is ch...

Learning Useful Horn Approximations
While the task of answering queries from an arbitrary propositional theory is intractable in general, it can typicallybe performed e ciently if the theory is Horn. This suggests t...

Using the Distance Distribution for Approximate Similarity Queries in High-Dimensional Metric Spaces
We investigate the problem of approximate similarity (nearest neighbor) search in high-dimensional metric spaces, and describe how the distance distribution of the query object ca...

Approximate Colored Range Queries
In this paper, we formulate a class of colored range query problems to model the multi-dimensional range queries in the presence of categorical information. By applying appropriate...
