Our goal is to model the way people induce knowledge from rare and sparse data. This paper describes a theoretical framework for inducing knowledge from these incomplete data descr...
Given a set of objects P and a query point q, a k nearest neighbor (k-NN) query retrieves the k objects in P that lie closest to q. Even though the problem is well-studied for sta...
Advances in wireless networks and positioning technologies (e.g., GPS) have enabled new data management applications that monitor moving objects. In such new applications, realtime...
