ABSTRACT:
Selectivity estimates are produced that meet a desired confidence threshold. To determine the confidence level of a given selectivity estimate for a query expression, the query expression is evaluated on a sample tuples. A probability density function is derived based on the number of tuples in the sample that satisfy the query expression. The cumulative distribution for the probability density function is solved for the given threshold to determine a selectivity estimate at the given confidence value.
