In this project, we particularly are interested to detect mileading information and statements made by <i>cherry-picking data</i>.
This is popular among politicians since they would like not to be caught blatantly lying.
That is why "<i>A lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies</i>" (A.Tennyson).<br>
But how to computationally detect/measure "half a truth"?
We aim to address this question in this project.

<p>This project has been supported by the Google Scholar Award.</p>

<p> Scalability has always been a challenge in CS.<br/>
Just like Orcas who find smart ways to hunt the giants (watch these: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DG8zCIBNh0" target="_blank">[1]</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPjkHFD3bpA" target="_blank">[2]</a>),
we aim to design efficient and accurate algorithms that can solve problems at scale.

<p>
Evaluating objects, ranking them, and selecting the <i>"best"</i>, is the key to decision making and a fundumental CS problem.
However, almost as critical it is, ranking has always been controversial.
Probably the main reason is that the concept of "best" lies in the eyes of the beholder and there can be many criteria involoved.
Examples range from simple daily tasks such as booking a hotel or choosing a photo to post, to evaluating candidates for college admission, ranking universities, you name it.
</p>
<p>
Finding novel, efficient, and accurate technical solutions for addressing the challenging problems in this area is our focus here.

<p>Web databases, also known as deep web or hidden web databases, cover a large portion of web.
This includes shopping websites such as Amazon and eBay,
service search sites such as Expedia and Google Flights,
recommendation websites, and P2P marketplaces such as Airbnb and Craigslist.
With minor differences, such systems have a typical structure that enforce a ranked retrieval interface.<br>
Our projects in this category enable efficient data exploration and flexible query answering and recommendation in this environment.
