The ability to store and query uncertain information is of great benefit to databases that infer values from a set of observations, including databases of moving objects, sensor r...
Techniques for plan recognition under uncertainty require a stochastic model of the plangeneration process. We introduce probabilistic state-dependent grammars (PSDGs) to represen...
XML queries typically specify patterns of selection predicates on multiple elements that have some specified tree structured relationships. The primitive tree structured relations...

Efficient user-adaptable similarity search more and more increases in its importance for multimedia and spatial database systems. As a general similarity model for multi-dimension...
Emerging applications using miniature electronic devices (e.g., tracking mobile objects using sensors) generate very large amounts of highly dynamic data that poses very high overh...
