Skyline queries have wide-ranging applications in fields that involve multi-criteria decision making, including tourism, retail industry, and human resources. By automatically removing incompetent candidates, skyline queries allow users to…
Ranking (or top-k) and skyline queries are the most popular approaches used to extract interesting data from large datasets. The first one is based on a scoring function to evaluate and rank tuples. Its computation is fast, but it is…
The problem of selecting the most representative tuples from a dataset has led to the development of powerful tools, among which Skyline and Ranking (or Top-k) queries stand out for their ability to support the optimization of multiple…
Skyline and ranking queries are two of the most used tools to manage large data sets. The former is based on non-dominance, while the latter on a scoring function. Despite their effectiveness, they have some drawbacks like the result size…
Top-k and skylines are two important techniques that can be used to extract the best objects from a set. Both the approaches have well-known pros and cons: a quite big limitation of skyline queries is the impossibility to control the…
When extracting a relation of spans (intervals) from a text document, a common practice is to filter out tuples of the relation that are deemed dominated by others. The domination rule is defined as a partial order that varies along…
Skyline and Ranking queries have gained great popularity in the recent years. These two techniques are crucial for multi-criteria decision support applications, which are now more popular than ever before. Skyline and Ranking queries are,…
Skyline and Top-k are two of the most important methods to extract information from datasets, but both come with their drawbacks, that's why lately some new technics that try to mix the features of the two have been studied. In this survey…
Living in the Information Age allows almost everyone have access to a large amount of information and options to choose from in order to fulfill their needs. In many cases, the amount of information available and the rate of change may hide…
To retrieve the best results in a database we use Top-K queries and Skyline queries but some problems arise. The formers rely too much on user preferences, which are difficult to quantify and may skew the fetching of the data, while the…
A set of preferred records can be obtained from a large database in a multi-criteria setting using various computational methods which either depend on the concept of dominance or on the concept of utility or scoring function based on the…
Top-$k$ queries and skylines are the two most common approaches to finding the most interesting entries in a homogeneous multi-dimensional dataset. However, both of these strategies have some shortcomings. Top-$k$ queries are very…
The multi-criteria decision making, which is possible with the advent of skyline queries, has been applied in many areas. Though most of the existing research is concerned with only a single relation, several real world applications require…
The multi-objective optimization problem has always been the main objective of the principal traditional approaches, such as Ranking queries and Skyline queries. The conventional idea was to either use one or the other, trying to exploit…
The techniques most extensively used to retrieve interesting data from data-sets are the Skyline and the Top-k queries. Sadly, they are not enough for facing modern problems, so the needing of something more usable and reliable has come. In…
Recent studies pointed out some limitations about classic top-k queries and skyline queries. Ranking queries impose the user to provide a specific scoring function, which can lead to the exclusion of interesting results because of the…
There are two most common paradigms that are used in order to identify records of preference in a multi-objective settings, one relies on dominance, like the skyline operator, the other instead, on a utility function defined over the…
The task of similarity search in multimedia databases is usually accomplished by range or k nearest neighbor queries. However, the expressing power of these "single-example" queries fails when the user's delicate query intent is not…
The problem of optimizing across different, conceivably conflicting, criteria is called multi-objective optimization and it is widely spread across many fields. This is a recurring problem in database queries when there is the need of…
As more data-intensive applications emerge, advanced retrieval semantics, such as ranking or skylines, have attracted attention. Geographic information systems are such an application with massive spatial data. Our goal is to efficiently…
