Many planning and design problems can be characterized as optimal search over a constrained network of conditional choices with preferences. To draw upon the advanced methods of c...
In this paper, we present a new algorithm for clustering data in large datasets using image processing approaches. First the dataset is mapped into a binary image plane. The synthe...
Analogy-based hypothesis generation is a promising technique for knowledge discovery. However, some hypotheses generated are nonsensical. This paper describes a two-phased method ...
What modes and domains of knowledge about data production processes are most critical for producing high-quality data? This study provides an answer to this question. Data are coll...
There has been a great deal of interest in recent years on ranking query results in relational databases. This paper presents a novel method to rank objects (e.g., tuples) by explo...
