In this paper, we propose a novel approach for estimating the record selectivities of database queries. The real attribute value distribution is adaptively approximated by a curve...
We present BAYESUM (for "Bayesian summarization"), a model for sentence extraction in query-focused summarization. BAYESUM leverages the common case in which multiple do...
Abstract. We study the approximation of the integration of multivariate functions classes in the quantum model of computation. We first obtain a lower bound of the n-th minimal qu...
We consider the problem of how one can estimate the support of Boolean queries given a collection of frequent itemsets. We describe an algorithm that truncates the inclusion-exclus...
XML and other semi-structured data may have partially specified or missing schema information, motivating the use of a structural summary which can be automatically computed from ...
