Challenges for Efficient Query Evaluation on Structured Probabilistic Data
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
However, a new approach for this problem has recently been proposed, based on structural decompositions of input databases, following, e.g., tree decompositions. ...
This paper presents a vision for a database management system for probabilistic data built following this structural approach. ...
One way to work around this problem is thus to compute a partial decomposition [22] of the instance, i.e., a tree decomposition of a part of the instance whose width is at most k, with k fixed. ...

Opportunities and challenges for quantum-assisted machine learning in near-term quantum computers
2018
Quantum Science and Technology
Instead of using quantum computers to assist deep learning, as previous approaches do, the QAHM uses deep learning to extract a low-dimensional binary representation of data, suitable for relatively small ...
In this contribution to the focus collection on "What would you do with 1000 qubits?", we provide concrete examples of intractable ML tasks that could be enhanced with near-term devices. ...
To summarize, emphasis has been given to the embedding problem and to the mapping of the logical model of interest into physical hardware. ...

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Statistical model checking offers the potential to decide and quantify dynamical properties of models with intractably large state space, opening up the possibility to verify the performance of complex ...
Rare properties and long simulations pose a challenge to this approach, so here we present a fast and compact statistical model checking platform, PLASMA, that incorporates an efficient simulation engine ...
Rare properties pose a particular problem for simulation-based approaches, since they are not only difficult to observe (by definition) but their probability is difficult to bound [2] . ...
