We specify the black box behavior of dataflow components by characterizing the relation between their input and their output histories. We distinguish between three main classes of...
: In this paper the author considers some problems related to attribute dependencies in consensus determining. These problems concern the dependencies of attributes representing th...
We present a class of algorithms for independent component analysis (ICA) which use contrast functions based on canonical correlations in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. On th...
— A paramount challenge in probabilistic databases is the scalable computation of confidences of tuples in query results. This paper introduces an efficient secondary-storage o...
A generalized dice model for the pairwise comparison of non-necessarily independent random variables is established. It is shown how the transitivity of the probabilistic relation...
