Ramsey partitions and proximity data structures

Manor Mendel, Assaf Naor (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

This paper addresses two problems lying at the intersection of geometric analysis and theoretical computer science: The non-linear isomorphic Dvoretzky theorem and the design of good approximate distance oracles for large distortion.We introduce the notion of Ramsey partitions of a finite metric space, and show that the existence of good Ramsey partitions implies a solution to the metric Ramsey problem for large distortion (also known as the non-linear version of the isomorphic Dvoretzky theorem,...

Repetitions and permutations of columns in the semijoin algebra

Dirk Leinders, Jan Van Den Bussche (2009)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Codd defined the relational algebra [E.F. Codd, Communications of the ACM 13 (1970) 377–387; E.F. Codd, Relational completeness of data base sublanguages, in Data Base Systems, R. Rustin, Ed., Prentice-Hall (1972) 65–98] as the algebra with operations projection, join, restriction, union and difference. His projection operator can drop, permute and repeat columns of a relation. This permuting and repeating of columns does not really add expressive power to the relational algebra. Indeed, using the...

Representación de datos de conjuntos aproximados mediante diagramas de decisión binarios.

Alex Muir, Ivo Düntsch, Günther Gediga (2004)

RACSAM

A new information system representation, which inherently represents indiscernibility is presented. The basic structure of this representation is a Binary Decision Diagram. We offer testing results for converting large data sets into a Binary Decision Diagram Information System representation, and show how indiscernibility can be efficiently determined. Furthermore, a Binary Decision Diagram is used in place of a relative discernibility matrix to allow for more efficient determination of the discernibility...

Rough modeling - a bottom-up approach to model construction

Terje Loken, Jan Komorowski (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Traditional data mining methods based on rough set theory focus on extracting models which are good at classifying unseen obj-ects. If one wants to uncover new knowledge from the data, the model must have a high descriptive quality-it must describe the data set in a clear and concise manner, without sacrificing classification performance. Rough modeling, introduced by Kowalczyk (1998), is an approach which aims at providing models with good predictive emphand descriptive qualities, in addition to...
