Kernel-based methods, e.g., support vector machine (SVM), produce high classification performances. However, the computation becomes time-consuming as the number of the vectors su...
This paper introduces RankSQL, a system that provides a systematic and principled framework to support efficient evaluations of ranking (top-k) queries in relational database syst...

What is systems biology? What can biologists gain from an attempt to algebraize the questions in systems biology? Starting with plausible biological theses, can one algebraically m...
Many numerical algorithms are specified in terms of operations on vectors and matrices. Matrix operations can be executed extremely efficiently using specialized linear algebra k...
We formulate an algebra of binary temporal relations between events the number of occurrences of which is unknown, but which are known to recur in time. Ontologically, we view the...
