Tables are an integral part of documents, reports and Web pages in many scientific and technical domains, compactly encoding important information that can be difficult to express in text. Table-like structures outside documents, such as spreadsheets, CSV files, log files and databases, are widely used to represent and share information. However, tables remain beyond the scope of regular text processing systems which often treat them like free text.

Lushan Han

Developing interfaces to enable casual, non-expert users to query complex structured data has been the subject of much research over the past forty years. We refer to them as as schema-free query interfaces, since they allow users to freely query data without understanding its schema, knowing how to refer to objects, or mastering the appropriate formal query language. Schema-free query interfaces address fundamental problems in natural la...]]></description>

Data exfilteration is the unauthorized leakage of confidential data from a particular system.  It is a specific form of intrusion that is particularly hard to catch due to the most common cause: an insider entity who is responsible for the leak. That entity could be a person employed in the organization or a malicious hardware component bought from an unreliable third party. Catching such intrusions, therefore, can be extremely difficult.

  <description><![CDATA[Log files comprise of different events happening in various applications, operating systems and even in network devices. Originally they were used to record information for diagnostic and debugging purposes. Nowadays, logs are also used to track events which can be used in auditing and forensics in case of malicious activities or systems attacks. Various softwares like intrusion detection systems, webservers, anti-virus and anti-malware systems, firewalls and network devices generate logs wit...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Dealing with uncertainty is crucial in ontology engineering tasks such
as domain modeling, ontology reasoning, and concept mapping between
ontologies. The Bayes OWL project addresses this problem by exploring
how uncertainty can be modeled in ontologies using Bayesian networks
(BN). Our approach involves extending OWL to allow additional
probabilistic markups for attaching probability information.  Having
done so, we can directly convert a probabilistically annotated OWL
ontology into ...]]></description>
