Large-scale database integration requires a significant cost in developing a global schema and finding mappings between the global and local schemas. Developing the global schema r...
Abstract-- The dynamics of exploration vs exploitation decisions are explored in the context of robotic search problems. Building on prior work on robotic search together with our ...
Wide-area distribution raises significant performance problems for traditional query processing techniques as data access becomes less predictable due to link congestion, load imb...
Whereas traditional databases manage only deterministic information, many applications that use databases involve uncertain data. This paper presents a Probabilistic Tree Data Bas...
Cooperative multiagent probabilistic inference can be applied in areas such as building surveillance and complex system diagnosis to reason about the states of the distributed unc...
