We propose a new functional framework for modeling, querying and reasoning about OLAP databases. The framework represents data (data cubes and dimensional hierarchies) and queryin...
Here is discussed how to construct domain ontologies with both taxonomic and non-taxonomic conceptual relationships, exploiting a machinereadable dictionary (MRD) and domain-speci...
We introduce a new method for automatically constructing concept hierarchies where the concept nodes follow a generalization / specialization relation. Starting from a set of conc...
We introduce a constraint-driven methodology for the automated assembly, organization and playout of presentations from multimedia databases. We use inclusion and exclusion constr...
Developing a large belief network, like any large system, requires systems engineering to manage the design and construction process. We propose that network engineering follow a ...
