We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...

An important issue arising from large scale data integration is how to efficiently select the top-K ranking answers from multiple sources while minimizing the transmission cost. T...
Soon, much of the data exchanged over the Internet will be encoded in XML, allowing for sophisticated filtering and content-based routing. We have built a filtering engine called ...

We study a new data mining problem concerning the discovery of frequent agreement subtrees (FASTs) from a set of phylogenetic trees. A phylogenetic tree, or phylogeny, is an unorde...
Excessive buffer requirement to handle continuous-media playbacks is an impediment to costeffective provisioning for on-line video retrieval. Given the skewed distribution of video...
