This paper addresses the efficient processing of similarity queries in metric spaces, where data is horizontally distributed across a P2P network. The proposed approach does not r...
We study the problem of computing query results with confidence values in ULDBs: relational databases with uncertainty and lineage. ULDBs, which subsume probabilistic databases, o...

Different information retrieval (IR) systems often return very diverse results lists for the same query. This is problematic for users since no one IR system works best for every ...
Incomplete information arises naturally in numerous data management applications. Recently, several researchers have studied query processing in the context of incomplete informat...
