Model-Driven Data Acquisition in Sensor Networks

Summary: Enriches declarative sensor queries with statistical models to map readings to reality and provide probabilistic confidence. Presents an optimization to select readings under cost, with an exponential-time exact solver and a practical polynomial-time heuristic, achieving high fidelity and gains over traditional acquisition.
