Abstract. We give a general framework for approximate query processing in semistructured databases. We focus on regular path queries, which are the integral part of most of the que...
When integrating data from autonomous sources, exact matches of data items that represent the same real world object often fail due to a lack of common keys. Yet in many cases str...
—Subspaces offer convenient means of representing information in many pattern recognition, machine vision, and statistical learning applications. Contrary to the growing populari...
