The need for discovering knowledge from XML documents according to both structure and content features has become challenging, due to the increase in application contexts for which handling both structure and content information in XML data…
Supertree construction is the process by which a set of phylogenetic trees, each on a subset of the overall set X of species, is combined into a tree on the full set S. The traditional use of supertree methods is the assembly of a large…
Retrosynthesis is a technique to plan the chemical synthesis of organic molecules, for example drugs, agro- and fine chemicals. In retrosynthesis, a search tree is built by analysing molecules recursively and dissecting them into simpler…
This paper describes the approach taken to the XML Mining track at INEX 2008 by a group at the Queensland University of Technology. We introduce the K-tree clustering algorithm in an Information Retrieval context by adapting it for document…
XML document markup is highly repetitive and therefore well compressible using dictionary-based methods such as DAGs or grammars. In the context of selectivity estimation, grammar-compressed trees were used before as synopsis for structural…
In recent years, significant progress has been made on algorithms for learning optimal decision trees, primarily in the context of binary features. Extending these methods to continuous features remains substantially more challenging due to…
Macro tree transducers (mtts) are a useful formal model for XML query and transformation languages. In this paper one of the fundamental decision problems on translations, namely the "translation membership problem" is studied for mtts. For…
Optimization modeling is one of the most crucial but technical parts of operations research (OR). To automate the modeling process, existing works have leveraged large language models (LLMs), prompting them to break down tasks into steps…
A low-complexity tree search approach is presented that achieves the maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding performance of Reed-Muller (RM) codes. The proposed approach generates a bit-flipping tree that is traversed to find the ML decoding…
The problem of selecting small groups of itemsets that represent the data well has recently gained a lot of attention. We approach the problem by searching for the itemsets that compress the data efficiently. As a compression technique we…
We show that the problem of constructing tree-structured descriptions of data layouts that are optimal with respect to space or other criteria from given sequences of displacements, can be solved in polynomial time. The problem is relevant…
Distributed heterogeneous data sources need to be queried uniformly using global schema. Query on global schema is reformulated so that it can be executed on local data sources. Constraints in global schema and mappings are used for source…
Recently, several works have studied the problem of view selection in graph databases. However, existing methods cannot fully exploit the graph properties of views, e.g., supergraph views and common subgraph views, which leads to a low view…
Consensus maximization is widely used for robust fitting in computer vision. However, solving it exactly, i.e., finding the globally optimal solution, is intractable. A* tree search, which has been shown to be fixed-parameter tractable, is…
Frequent tree mining asks us to enumerate tree patterns that occur frequently in a database of rooted trees. This problem is motivated by tree-structured data in bioinformatics, such as glycans and pseudoknot-free RNA secondary structures.…
XML data warehouses form an interesting basis for decision-support applications that exploit heterogeneous data from multiple sources. However, XML-native database systems currently suffer from limited performances in terms of manageable…
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, we show how to build a Steiner forest spanner for such graphs.…
Given two rooted, labeled trees $P$ and $T$ the tree path subsequence problem is to determine which paths in $P$ are subsequences of which paths in $T$. Here a path begins at the root and ends at a leaf. In this paper we propose this…
Structural decomposition methods offer powerful theoretical guarantees for join evaluation, yet they are rarely used in real-world query optimizers. A major reason is the difficulty of combining cost-based plan search and structure-based…
A vertex-subset graph problem $Q$ defines which subsets of the vertices of an input graph are feasible solutions. The reconfiguration version of a vertex-subset problem $Q$ asks whether it is possible to transform one feasible solution for…
