PROBABILISTIC DATA MANAGEMENT

Catalog description

(Slashed with CS 63018 ) This course addresses the fundamental concepts and techniques for probabilistic data management in the area of databases. Probabilistic data are pervasive in many real-world applications, such as sensor networks, GPS system, location-based services, mobile computing, multimedia databases, data extraction and integration, trajectory data analysis, semantic web, and privacy preserving. This class also covers major research topics such as probabilistic or uncertain data models, probabilistic queries, probabilistic query answering techniques, and data quality issues in databases.
