In earlier work we have introduced and explored a variety of different probabilistic models for the problem of answering selectivity queries posed to large sparse binary data set...
The Closed-World Assumption (CWA) on databases expresses that an atom not in the database is false. A more appropriate assumption for databases that are sound but partially incomp...
The ability to approximately answer aggregation queries accurately and efficiently is of great benefit for decision support and data mining tools. In contrast to previous sampling...
With the amount of data in current data warehouse databases growing steadily, random sampling is continuously gaining in importance. In particular, interactive analyses of large d...
Abstract. Sensor networks represent a non traditional source of information, as readings generated by sensors flow continuously, leading to an infinite stream of data. Traditiona...
