Selectivity Estimation for Exclusive Query Translation in Deep Web Data Integration
In Deep Web data integration, some Web database interfaces express exclusive predicates of the form Qe = Pi(Pi ∈ P1, P2, . . . , Pm), which permits only one predicate to be selected at a time. Accurately and efficiently estimating the selectivity of each Qe is of critical importance to optimal query translation. In this paper, we mainly focus on the selectivity estimation on infinite-value attribute which is more difficult than that on key attribute and categorical attribute. Firstly, we compute the attribute correlation and retrieve approximate random attribute-level samples through submitting queries on the least correlative attribute to the actual Web database. Then we estimate Zipf equation based on the word rank of the sample and the actual selectivity of several words from the actual Web database. Finally, the selectivity of any word on the infinite-value attribute can be derived by the Zipf equation. An experimental evaluation of the proposed selectivity estimation method is...
