Probabilistic ranking for relational databases based on correlations
This paper proposes a ranking method to exploit statistical correlations among pairs of attribute values in relational databases. For a given query, the correlations of the query are aggregated with each of the attribute values in a tuple to estimate the relevance of that tuple to the query. We extend Bayesian network models to provide a probabilistic ranking function based on a limited assumption of value independence. Experimental results show that our model improves the retrieval effectiveness on real datasets and has a reasonable query processing time compared to related work.
