During the past few years, several studies have been made on the performance of real-time database systems with respect to the number of transactions that miss their deadlines. Th...
The class of algorithms for approximating reasoning tasks presented in this paper is based on approximating the general bucket elimination framework. The algorithms have adjustabl...
A successful technique to search large textual databases allowing errors relies on an online search in the vocabulary of the text. To reduce the time of that online search, we ind...
The paper introduces a notion of support for realvalued functions. It is shown how to approximate supports of a large class of functions based on supports of so called polynomial ...
With the proliferation of multimedia data, there is an increasing need to support the indexing and searching of high-dimensional data. In this paper, we propose an efficient indexi...
