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...
Abstract— Over the last years, interest in hybrid metaheuristics has risen considerably in the field of optimization. Combinations of methods such as evolutionary algorithms and...
The ambiguity of person names in the Web has become a new area of interest for NLP researchers. This challenging problem has been formulated as the task of clustering Web search r...
We propose a new fast algorithm for solving one of the standard formulations of image restoration and reconstruction which consists of an unconstrained optimization problem where t...
We present a streamlined and refined version of Karr’s summation algorithm. Karr’s original approach constructively decides the telescoping problem in ΠΣ-fields, a very ge...
