Abstract: Optimization of nested queries, in particular finding equivalent “flattened” queries for queries that employ the SQL sub-query construct, has been researched extensiv...
Abstract. Algorithms for processing Structural Joins embody essential building blocks for XML query evaluation. Their design is a difficult task, because they have to satisfy many ...
Timed and weak timed simulation relations are often used to show that operations on hybrid systems result in equivalent behavior or in conservative overapproximations. Given that s...
The locally linear embedding (LLE) algorithm is considered as a powerful method for the problem of nonlinear dimensionality reduction. In this paper, first, a new method called cl...
We present a linear expected time algorithm for finding maximum cardinality matchings in sparse random graphs. This is optimal and improves on previous results by a logarithmic f...
