We describe FactorBase, a new SQL-based framework that leverages a relational database management system to support multi-relational model discovery. A multi-relational statistical model provides an integrated analysis of the heterogeneous…
The relationship between belief networks and relational databases is examined. Based on this analysis, a method to construct belief networks automatically from statistical relational data is proposed. A comparison between our method and…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Science Archive is the first in a series of multi-Terabyte digital archives in Astronomy and other data-intensive sciences. To facilitate data mining in the SDSS archive, we adapted a commercial database engine…
The abundance of the data in the Internet facilitates the improvement of extraction and processing tools. The trend in the open data publishing encourages the adoption of structured formats like CSV and RDF. However, there is still a…
We live in a data-centric world where we are heading to generate close to 200 Zettabytes of data by the year 2025. Our data processing requirements have also increased as we push to build data processing frameworks that can process large…
In disseminating scientific and statistical data, on-line databases have almost completely replaced traditional paper-based media such as journals and reference works. Given this, can we measure the impact of a database in the same way that…
In database development, a conceptual model is created, in the form of an Entity-relationship(ER) model, and transformed to a relational database schema (RDS) to create the database. However, some important information represented on the ER…
With the increasing popularity of XML data and a great need for a database management system able to store, retrieve and manipulate XML-based data in an efficient manner, database research communities and software industries have tried to…
Content management systems use various strategies to store and manage information. One of the most usual methods encountered in commercial products is to make use of the file system to store the raw content information, while the associated…
This vision paper lays the preliminary foundations for Data Narrative Management Systems (DNMS), systems that enable the storage, sharing, and manipulation of data narratives. We motivate the need for such formal foundations and introduce a…
Advances in information technology and its widespread growth in several areas of business, engineering, medical and scientific studies are resulting in information/data explosion. Knowledge discovery and decision making from such rapidly…
Data organization is a difficult and essential component in cultural heritage applications. Over the years, a great amount of archaeological ceramic data have been created and processed by various methods and devices. Such ceramic data are…
In this paper, we show how to use a Relational Database Management System in support of Finite Element Analysis. We believe it is a new way of thinking about data management in well-understood applications to prepare them for two major…
Modern enterprises are increasingly driven by the DATA+AI paradigm, in which Database Management Systems (DBMSs) and Large Language Models (LLMs) have become two foundational infrastructures powering a wide range of industrial and business…
This paper discusses a method for implementing a probabilistic inference system based on an extended relational data model. This model provides a unified approach for a variety of applications such as dynamic programming, solving sparse…
A hidden database refers to a dataset that an organization makes accessible on the web by allowing users to issue queries through a search interface. In other words, data acquisition from such a source is not by following static…
Query answering over probabilistic data is an important task but is generally intractable. However, a new approach for this problem has recently been proposed, based on structural decompositions of input databases, following, e.g., tree…
One of the purposes of Big Data systems is to support analysis of data gathered from heterogeneous data sources. Since data warehouses have been used for several decades to achieve the same goal, they could be leveraged also to provide…
This paper reviews the changes for database technology represented by the current development of the draft international standard ISO 39075 (Database Languages - GQL), which seeks a unified specification for property graphs and knowledge…
The need for Knowledge and Data Discovery Management Systems (KDDMS) that support ad hoc data mining queries has been long recognized. A significant amount of research has gone into building tightly coupled systems that integrate…
