Approximating predicates and expressive queries on probabilistic databases
We study complexity and approximation of queries in an expressive query language for probabilistic databases. The language studied supports the compositional use of confidence com...

Exact Delaunay graph of smooth convex pseudo-circles: general predicates, and implementation for ellipses
We examine the problem of computing exactly the Delaunay graph (and the dual Voronoi diagram) of a set of, possibly intersecting, smooth convex pseudo-circles in the Euclidean pla...

The predicates for the Voronoi diagram of ellipses
This paper examines the computation of the Voronoi diagram of a set of ellipses in the Euclidean plane. We propose the first complete algorithms, under the exact computation para...
