This paper analyzes the potential advantages and theoretical challenges of “active learning” algorithms. Active learning involves sequential sampling procedures that use infor...
Indexing XML is crucial for efficient XML query processing. We propose a compact tree (Ctree) for XML indexing, which provides not only concise path summaries at group level but a...
In this paper we present the application of an evolution strategy to the problem of detecting multi-planet transit events in photometric time-data series. Planetary transits occur...
Database storage management in clustered storage environments is a manual, time-consuming, and error-prone task. Such management involves regular movement of database objects acro...
Back-in-time debuggers are extremely useful tools for identifying the causes of bugs. Unfortunately the "omniscient" approaches that try to remember all previous states a...
