The Web Based File Clustering and Indexing for Mindoro State University aim to organize data circulated over the Web into groups or collections to facilitate data availability and access and at the same time meet user preferences. The main…
Enabling question answering over tables and databases in natural language has become a key capability in the democratization of insights from tabular data sources. These systems first require retrieval of data that is relevant to a given…
Association rule mining is an active data mining research area and most ARM algorithms cater to a centralized environment. Centralized data mining to discover useful patterns in distributed databases isn't always feasible because merging…
In this work, we consider the problem of distributed computing of functions of structured sources, focusing on the classical setting of two correlated sources and one user that seeks the outcome of the function while benefiting from…
Scientists always look for the most accurate and relevant answer to their queries on the scholarly literature. Traditional scholarly search systems list documents instead of providing direct answers to the search queries. As data in…
Query translation (QT) is a key component in cross-lingual information retrieval system (CLIR). With the help of deep learning, neural machine translation (NMT) has shown promising results on various tasks. However, NMT is generally trained…
In this work, a novel distributed search-planning framework is proposed, where a dynamically varying team of autonomous agents cooperate in order to search multiple objects of interest in three-dimension (3-D). It is assumed that the agents…
Federated Learning is machine learning in the context of a network of clients whilst maintaining data residency and/or privacy constraints. Community detection is the unsupervised discovery of clusters of nodes within graph-structured data.…
Archived collections of documents (like newspaper archives) serve as important information sources for historians, journalists, sociologists and other interested parties. Semantic Layers over such digital archives allow describing and…
Over the past 40 years, database management systems (DBMSs) have evolved to provide a sophisticated variety of data management capabilities. At the same time, tools for managing queries over the data have remained relatively primitive. One…
Many repositories utilize the versatile RDF model to publish data. Repositories are typically distributed and geographically remote, but data are interconnected (e.g., the Semantic Web) and queried globally by a language such as SPARQL. Due…
Conversational search is a relatively young area of research that aims at automating an information-seeking dialogue. In this paper we help to position it with respect to other research areas within conversational Artificial Intelligence…
Providing effective access paths to content is a key task in digital libraries. Oftentimes, such access paths are realized through advanced query languages, which, on the one hand, users may find challenging to learn or use, and on the…
In recent years, the growing need to leverage sensitive data across institutions has led to increased attention on federated learning (FL), a decentralized machine learning paradigm that enables model training without sharing raw data.…
We discuss general models of resource-sharing computations, with emphasis on the combinatorial structures and concepts that underlie the various deadlock models that have been proposed, the design of algorithms and deadlock-handling…
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…
In this paper, we consider decentralized sequential decision making in distributed online recommender systems, where items are recommended to users based on their search query as well as their specific background including history of bought…
Retrievability measures the influence a retrieval system has on the access to information in a given collection of items. This measure can help in making an evaluation of the search system based on which insights can be drawn. In this…
Social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook etc can be utilised as an important source of information during disaster events. This information can be used for disaster response and crisis management if processed accurately and quickly.…
As the volume of the RDF data becomes increasingly large, it is essential for us to design a distributed database system to manage it. For distributed RDF data design, it is quite common to partition the RDF data into some parts, called…
