Unauthorized inferences in semistructured databases

“…However, the achievements of MLS database inferences have not been applied to evaluate the privacy implications of inferences in semistructured databases. The rapid development of the Internet, wide spread use of distributed databases [17,42,55,77], and the large amount of digitalized personal data, like medical databases [69,72], increase the risk of unauthorized disclosure of private data. Existing methods [22,47,51,56,62,74,7,25,41] focus on preventing privacy violations via direct data accesses without considering the inference problem.…”

Interschema correspondence establishment in a cooperative OWL-based multi-information server grid environment

“…Recently, a number of research efforts have focused on the various aspects of mediating knowledge, which holds more extensive semantic information than other integration approaches. The mediator approach [32,47,2,28,25,16,9] provides seamless access to a collection of related, but possibly heterogeneous and distributed ISs by constructing semantically rich integrated views of the underlying information sources to which access is required. The notion of interschema knowledge is critical for the development of any of these approaches.…”

Distance and similarity measures for fuzzy operators

“…[10,16]. Various similarity measures for fuzzy sets have been proposed in the literature (e.g., [3,7,10,15]).…”
