Given a set S of n points in IRd , a (t, )-approximate Voronoi diagram (AVD) is a partition of space into constant complexity cells, where each cell c is associated with t represe...
Modern information systems often store data that has been transformed and integrated from a variety of sources. This integration may obscure the original source semantics of data ...
Abstract— In this paper, we propose a novel, effective and efficient probabilistic pruning criterion for probabilistic similarity queries on uncertain data. Our approach support...

Question answering (QA) systems take users’ natural language questions and retrieve relevant answers from large repositories of free texts. Despite recent progress in QA researc...
Emergent Semantics is a new paradigm for inferring semantic meaning from implicit feedback by a sufficiently large number of users of an object retrieval system. In this paper, we ...
