Probabilistic Top-k query processing in distributed sensor networks

TLDR
The sufficient set-based (SSB) algorithm for inter-cluster query processing of probabilistic Top-k queries in cluster-based wireless sensor networks is developed and Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm reduces data transmissions significantly.
Abstract
In this paper, we propose the notion of sufficient set for distributed processing of probabilistic Top-k queries in cluster-based wireless sensor networks. Through the derivation of sufficient boundary, we show that data items ranked lower than sufficient boundary are not required for answering the probabilistic top-k queries, thus are subject to local pruning. Accordingly, we develop the sufficient set-based (SSB) algorithm for inter-cluster query processing. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm reduces data transmissions significantly.

On entity resolution in probabilistic data

S.N. Ayat
TL;DR: This thesis studies the ER problem in probabilistic databases, i.e. databases in which each tuple or attribute value is associated with a probability value to, for instance, indicate its confidence level, and studies the following problems: 1) identity resolution in Probabilistic data, 2) identity Resolution in distributed probabilism data, 3) deduplication in probable data, and 4) schema matching in a fully automated setting.

Sliding-window top-k queries on uncertain streams

TL;DR: This paper designs a unified framework for processing sliding-window top-k queries on uncertain streams, and shows that all the existing top-K definitions in the literature can be plugged into this framework, resulting in several succinct synopses that use space much smaller than the window size.
