Oneof the mainobstacles in applying data mining techniques to large, real-world databasesis the lack of efficient data management.In this paper, wepresent the design and implement...
Clustering is crucial to many applications in pattern recognition, data mining, and machine learning. Evolutionary techniques have been used with success in clustering, but most su...
In this paper we describe how the Stepwise Adaptation of Weights (saw) technique can be applied in genetic programming. The saw-ing mechanism has been originally developed for and ...
Support vector machines (SVMs) have played a key role in broad classes of problems arising in various fields. Much more recently, SVMs have become the tool of choice for problems...
Estimating the result size of a join is an important query optimization problem as it determines the choice of a good query evaluation strategy. Yet, there are few efficient techni...
