We study the complexity of the model checking problem, for fixed models A, over certain fragments L of first-order logic, obtained by restricting which of the quantifiers and boole...
We formulate three intuitive semantic properties for topk queries in probabilistic databases, and propose GlobalTopk query semantics which satisfies all of them. We provide a dyn...
In image retrieval, global features related to color or texture are commonly used to describe the image content. The use of interest points in contentbased image retrieval allows ...
We consider kernel density estimation when the observations are contaminated by measurement errors. It is well known that the success of kernel estimators depends heavily on the c...
Evaluating complex system is a complex task. Evaluation campaigns are organized each year to test different systems on global results, but they do not evaluate the relevance of th...
