Cardinality estimation during query optimization relies on simplifying assumptions that usually do not hold in practice. To diminish the impact of inaccurate estimates during opti...
A fundamental problem related to RDF query processing is selectivity estimation, which is crucial to query optimization for determining a join order of RDF triple patterns. In thi...
Estimating the result size of a join is an important query optimization problem as it determines the choice of a good query evaluation strategy. Yet, there are few efficient techni...
This article describes how to implement efficient memory resident path indexes for semi-structured data. Two techniques are introduced, and they are shown to be significantly fas...
This paper presents an active learning method that directly optimizes expected future error. This is in contrast to many other popular techniques that instead aim to reduce versio...
