In this paper we explore database segmentation in the context of a column-store DBMS targeted at a scientific database. We present a novel hardware- and scheme-oblivious segmentati...
Join techniques deploying approximate match predicates are fundamental data cleaning operations. A variety of predicates have been utilized to quantify approximate match in such o...

One of the central challenges in reinforcement learning is to balance the exploration/exploitation tradeoff while scaling up to large problems. Although model-based reinforcement ...
Proton computed tomography (pCT) has the potential to improve the accuracy of proton treatment planning, which is currently based on x-ray computed tomography (xCT). However, at t...
