Set similarity join is a fundamental and well-studied database operator. It is usually studied in the exact setting where the goal is to compute all pairs of sets that exceed a given similarity threshold (measured e.g. as Jaccard…
The Exact Set Similarity Join problem aims to find all similar sets between two collections of sets, with respect to a threshold and a similarity function such as overlap, Jaccard, dice or cosine. The naive approach verifies all pairs of…
Join ordering is a key factor in query performance, yet traditional cost-based optimizers often produce sub-optimal plans due to inaccurate cardinality estimates in multi-predicate, multi-join queries. Existing alternatives such as…
Graph datasets with billions of edges, such as social and Web graphs, are prevalent, and scalable computation is critical. All-distances sketches (ADS) [Cohen 1997], are a powerful tool for scalable approximation of statistics. The sketch…
