Ranking queries are essential tools to process large amounts of probabilistic data that encode exponentially many possible deterministic instances. In many applications where unce...
We study the problem of continuous monitoring of top-k queries over multiple non-synchronized streams. Assuming a sliding window model, this general problem has been a well addres...
The goal of testing is to discriminate between multiple hypotheses about a system--for example, different fault diagnoses--by applying input patterns and verifying or falsifying t...
Background: Existing biological databases support a variety of queries such as keyword or definition search. However, they do not provide any measure of relevance for the instance...
Ambiguous queries constitute a significant fraction of search instances and pose real challenges to web search engines. With current approaches the top results for these queries ...
