Characterizing Data Complexity for Conjunctive Query Answering in Expressive Description Logics
Description Logics (DLs) are the formal foundations of the standard web ontology languages OWL-DL and OWL-Lite. In the Semantic Web and other domains, ontologies are increasingly ...

Providing probabilistically-bounded approximate answers to non-holistic aggregate range queries in OLAP
A novel framework for providing probabilistically-bounded approximate answers to non-holistic aggregate range queries in OLAP is presented in this paper. Such a framework allows u...

Probabilistic Spatial Queries on Existentially Uncertain Data
We study the problem of answering spatial queries in databases where objects exist with some uncertainty and they are associated with an existential probability. The goal of a thre...

Web-Based Question Answering: A Decision-Making Perspective
We investigate the use of probabilistic models and cost-benefit analyses to guide the operation of a Web-based question-answering system. We first provide an overview of research ...
