Probabilistic models have recently been utilized for the optimization of large combinatorial search problems. However, complex probabilistic models that attempt to capture interpa...
Conditional functional dependencies (CFDs) have recently been proposed as extensions of classical functional dependencies that apply to a certain subset of the relation, as specif...

In this paper, we present a system we have developed for automatic TV News video indexing that successfully combines results from the fields of speaker verification, acoustic anal...
Computing multidimensional aggregates in high dimensions is a performance bottleneck for many OLAP applications. Obtaining the exact answer to an aggregation query can be prohibit...
We consider sensor networks in which individual nodes with on-board sensing and low-power transmitters and receivers establish connections with neighboring nodes. The overall objec...
