Techniques for plan recognition under uncertainty require a stochastic model of the plangeneration process. We introduce probabilistic state-dependent grammars (PSDGs) to represen...
Dependency networks are a compelling alternative to Bayesian networks for learning joint probability distributions from data and using them to compute probabilities. A dependency ...
Materialized views offer opportunities for significant performance gain in query evaluation by providing fast access to pre-computed data. The question of when and how to use a ma...
A peer-to-peer (P2P) data management system consists essentially of a network of peer systems, each maintaining full autonomy over its own data resources. Data exchange between pe...
We study the problem of automatically discovering semantic associations between schema elements, namely foreign keys. This problem is important in all applications where data sets...
