The query equivalence problem has been studied extensively for set-semantics and, more recently, for bag-set semantics. However, SQL queries often combine set and bag-set semantic...
This paper follows a formal approach to information retrieval based on statistical language models. By introducing some simple reformulations of the basic language modeling approa...
