Problem Statement
18
Given a set of uncertain objects and query q , return
the number of uncertain objects with appearance
probability no less than threshold pq
DB@UNSW
Problem Definition
19
Assume threshold =
0.5, if the appearance
probability computed
for b is > 0.5 and for c
is < 0.5, then the
aggregate returned is
2 (a & b)

Exact Query Processing ( aU-Tree)
20

Main idea: add aggregate information on U-tree
 Advantage:
stop at intermediate level if pruned or fully
covered by the query
 Disadvantage: otherwise, still need to drill down to the
leaf nodes.
 For
a large portion of uncertain objects, appearance
probability needs to be computed
 Expensive for a massive number of instances per object!

singleSample
22


Sampling the instances of the uncertain objects.
If m’ out of m sampled instances are inside query region, then
the approximate appearance probability is m’/m
DB@UNSW
singleSample ( cont. )
23
An immediate application of Chernoff-Hoeffding bound
DB@UNSW
doubleSample
24

Single Sampling is expensive when there is a
massive number of objects!
Sampling the uncertain objects as well.
Naive : uniform sampling objects from all uncertain objects.

DB@UNSW
doubleSample: Accuracy
25
•Note: “ appearance probability” of each object follows uniform distribution
means spatial location is uniformly distributed.
•Using Chernoff-Hoeffding bound.

doubleSample: Our Approach
26




Skew!
Aim: select K disjoint groups covering all objects with the
minimum “skew”; i.e. objects in each group with “uniform”
distribution. (Then do uniform sampling of objects in each
group.)
The optimization problem is NP-hard.
Observation:
 Min-skew is a good heuristic to conduct such a group.
 aU-tree groups objects with a similar principle to the minskew.
DB@UNSW
doubleSample: Our Approach
27

Step 1: choose K subtrees to cover all objects with the total
minimum skew. NP-hard!




Find a level L such that the number of nodes at level L is smaller
than K but the number of nodes at level L-1 is larger than K.
Feed the min-skew algorithm with the subtrees at level L.
(note: if at a level L, the number of nodes = K, then these K
subtrees are chosen.)
Step 2: sample objects in each subtree.
Step 3. sample instances in each sampled object.
