In this paper, an approach for the implementation of a qualitybased Web search engine is proposed. Quality retrieval is introduced and an overview on previous efforts to implement...
Suppose we have a parallel or distributed system whose nodes have limited capacities, such as processing speed, bandwidth, memory, or disk space. How does the performance of the s...
—We propose a new method for online estimation of probabilistic discriminative models. The method is based on the recently proposed online Kernel Density Estimation (oKDE) framew...
—All sciences, including astronomy, are now entering the era of information abundance. The exponentially increasing volume and complexity of modern data sets promises to transfor...
Partial replication is one type of optimization to speed up execution of queries submitted to large datasets. In partial replication, a portion of the dataset is extracted, re-org...
