We introduce a combinatorial dimension that characterizes the number of queries needed to exactly (or approximately) learn concept classes in various models. Our general dimension...
We consider the problem of efficiently finding the top-k answers for join queries over web-accessible databases. Classical algorithms for finding top-k answers use branch-and-b...
APS algorithms use the basic idea of distance vector routing to find positions in an ad hoc network using only a fraction of landmarks, for example GPS enabled nodes. All the node...
We consider an online learning scenario in which the learner can make predictions on the basis of a fixed set of experts. We derive upper and lower relative loss bounds for a cla...
