A compositional framework for complex queries over uncertain data
The ability to flexibly compose confidence computation with the operations of relational algebra is an important feature of probabilistic database query languages. Computing confi...

The Complexity of Causality and Responsibility for Query Answers and non-Answers
An answer to a query has a well-defined lineage expression (alternatively called how-provenance) that explains how the answer was derived. Recent work has also shown how to comput...

Semantics of Ranking Queries for Probabilistic Data and Expected Ranks
Abstract-- When dealing with massive quantities of data, topk queries are a powerful technique for returning only the k most relevant tuples for inspection, based on a scoring func...
