We present a method for sampling feature vectors in large (e.g., 2000 5000 16 bit) images that finds subsets of pixel locations which represent "regions" in the image. Sa...
The cost of a query plan depends on many parameters, such as predicate selectivities and available memory, whose values may not be known at optimization time. Parametric query opt...
The analysis of online least squares estimation is at the heart of many stochastic sequential decision-making problems. We employ tools from the self-normalized processes to provi...
The ability to grow extra nodes is a potentially useful facility for a self-organising neural network. A network that can add nodes into its map space can approximate the input sp...

Structurally recursive XML queries are an important query class that follows the structure of XML data. At present, it is difficult for XQuery to type and optimize structurally re...
