Views are known mechanisms for controlling access of data and for sharing data of different schemas. Despite long and intensive research on views in both the database community and the programming language community, we are facing…

The view and the view update are known mechanism for controlling access of data and for integrating data of different schemas. Despite intensive and long research on them in both the database community and the programming language…

In this paper, we revisit the view update problem in a relational setting and propose a framework based on the notion of determinacy under constraints. Within such a framework, we characterise when a view mapping is invertible, establishing…

Relational lenses are a modern approach to the view update problem in relational databases. As introduced by Bohannon et al. (2006), relational lenses allow the definition of updatable views by the composition of lenses performing…

Since the database update view was standardised in the Prolog ISO standard, the so called logical update view is available in all actively maintained Prolog systems. While this update view provided a well defined update semantics and allows…

View update is the problem of translating an update to a view to some updates to the source data of the view. In this paper, we show the factors determining XML view update translation, propose a translation procedure, and propose…

The dynamics of belief and knowledge is one of the major components of any autonomous system that should be able to incorporate new pieces of information. We show that knowledge base dynamics has interesting connection with kernel change…

In this paper we address the issue of change after deployment in safety-critical embedded system applications. Our goal is to substitute lab-based verification with in-field formal analysis to determine whether an update may be safely…

Lenses are a popular approach to bidirectional transformations, a generalisation of the view update problem in databases, in which we wish to make changes to source tables to effect a desired change on a view. However, perhaps surprisingly,…

We consider query answering using views on graph databases, i.e. databases structured as edge-labeled graphs. We mainly consider views and queries specified by Regular Path Queries (RPQ). These are queries selecting pairs of nodes in a…

Relational databases have always had a means for creating a pseudo-table, called a view, defined by a query. Views are like tables in most ways, except that they are read-only and cannot be updated. The problem of how to update views has…

Making a good graphic that accurately and efficiently conveys the desired message to the audience is both an art and a science, typically not taught in the data science curriculum. Visualisation makeovers are exercises where the community…

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive performance across various natural language benchmarks, prompting a continual need to curate more difficult datasets for larger LLMs, which is costly and time-consuming. In this paper,…

We employ the Coq proof assistant to develop a mechanically-certified framework for evaluating graph queries and incrementally maintaining materialized graph instances, also called views. The language we use for defining queries and views…

We show that database schema validation and update processing problems such as view updating, materialized view maintenance, integrity constraint checking, integrity constraint maintenance or condition monitoring can be classified as…

The dynamics of belief and knowledge is one of the major components of any autonomous system that should be able to incorporate new pieces of information. In order to apply the rationality result of belief dynamics theory to various…

Chart understanding presents a critical test to the reasoning capabilities of Vision-Language Models (VLMs). Prior approaches face critical limitations: some rely on external tools, making them brittle and constrained by a predefined…

Bridging the gap between natural language commands and autonomous execution in unstructured environments remains an open challenge for robotics. This requires robots to perceive and reason over the current task scene through multiple…

Over the past years, there has been a resurgence of Datalog-based systems in the database community as well as in industry. In this context, it has been recognized that to handle the complex knowl\-edge-based scenarios encountered today,…

Magic sets are a Datalog to Datalog rewriting technique to optimize query answering. The rewritten program focuses on a portion of the stable model(s) of the input program which is sufficient to answer the given query. However, the…
