Estimation via sampling out of highly selective join queries is well known to be problematic, most notably in online aggregation. Without goal-directed sampling strategies, samples...
Abstract. Accurate and fine-grained prediction of future user location and geographical profile has interesting and promising applications including targeted content service, adv...
We present a process algebra with conditionally distributed discrete-time delays and generally-distributed stochastic delays. The treatment allows for expansion laws for the paral...
Autonomous agents that communicate using probabilistic information and use Bayesian networks for knowledge representation need an update mechanism that goes beyond conditioning on ...
Abstract— This paper describes a probabilistic bail-out condition for multihypothesis testing based on Bennett’s inequality. We investigate the use of the test for increasing t...
