But before sophisticated machine learning and statistical methods are employed, it is useful to build and explore concise summaries of the data set. While a variety of summaries have been proposed over the years, the goal of creating a concise summary of multidimensional data that can provide worst-case accuracy guarantees has remained elusive. In this paper, we propose Tree Summaries, which attain this challenging goal over arbitrary hierarchical multidimensional data sets. Intuitively, a Tree Summary is a weighted \"embedded tree\" in the lattice that is the cross-product of the dimension hierarchies; individual data values can be efficiently estimated by looking up the weight of their unique closest ancestor in the Tree Summary. We study the problems of generating lossless as well as (given a desired worst-case accuracy guarantee a) lossy Tree Summaries. We develop a polynomial-time algorithm that constructs the optimal (i.e., most concise) Tree Summary for each of these problems; this is a surprising result given the NP-hardness of constructing a variety of other optimal summaries over multidimensional data. We complement our analytical results with an empirical evaluation of our algorithm, and demonstrate with a detailed set of experiments on real and synthetic data sets that our algorithm outperforms prior methods in terms of conciseness of summaries or accuracy of estimation.","PeriodicalId":6709,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 36th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE)","volume":"103 1","pages":"877-888"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86657213","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We first propose an efficient and scalable partitioning algorithm that uses the main principles of association analysis to identify patterns of co-occurrence of the attribute-value pairs within the documents. Data is then accordingly forwarded to compute nodes and locally joined using a novel FP-tree–based join algorithm. By compactly storing the documents and efficiently traversing the FP-tree structure, the proposed join algorithm can operate on large input sizes and provide results in real-time. We discuss data-dependent scalability limitations that are inherent to natural joins over schema-free data and show how to practically circumvent them by artificially expanding the space of possible attribute-value pairs. The proposed algorithms are realized in the Apache Storm stream processing framework. Through extensive experiments with real-world as well as synthetic data, we evaluate the proposed algorithms and show that they outperform competing approaches.","PeriodicalId":6709,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 36th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE)","volume":"28 1","pages":"805-816"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81957137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing methods for anomaly detection cannot distinguish between anomalies that represent data errors, such as incorrect sensor readings, and notable events, such as the watering action in soil monitoring. In addition, the quality performance of such detection methods highly depends on the configuration parameters, which are dataset specific. In this work, we exploit active learning to detect both errors and events in a single solution that aims at minimizing user interaction. For this joint detection, we introduce an algorithm that accurately detects and labels anomalies with a non-parametric concept of neighborhood and probabilistic classification. Given a desired quality, the confidence of the classification is then used as termination condition for the active learning algorithm. Experiments on real and synthetic datasets demonstrate that our approach achieves F-score above 80% in detecting errors by labeling 2 to 5 points in one data series. We also show the superiority of our solution compared to the state-of-the-art approaches for anomaly detection. Finally, we demonstrate the positive impact of our error detection methods in downstream data repairing algorithms.","PeriodicalId":6709,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 36th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE)","volume":"59 1","pages":"745-757"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88492366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose the first truly CPU-bound distributed framework called G-thinker that adopts a user-friendly subgraph-centric vertex-pulling API for writing distributed subgraph mining algorithms. To utilize all CPU cores of a cluster, G-thinker features (1) a highly-concurrent vertex cache for parallel task access and (2) a lightweight task scheduling approach that ensures high task throughput. These designs well overlap communication with computation to minimize the CPU idle time. Extensive experiments demonstrate that G-thinker achieves orders of magnitude speedup compared even with the fastest existing subgraph-centric system, and it scales well to much larger and denser real network data.

Such out-of-place update methods double the I/O traffic due to back-up copies in the database layer and quadruple the I/O traffic due to the file system journaling. In mobile systems, transaction sizes of mobile apps are known to be tiny and transactions run at low concurrency. For such mobile transactions, legacy out-of-place update methods such as WAL are sub-optimal. In this work, we propose a crash consistent in-place update logging method - doubleheader logging (DHL) for SQLite. DHL prevents previous consistent records from being lost by performing a copy-on-write inside the database page and co-locating the metadata-only journal information within the page. This is done, in turn, with minimal sacrifice to page utilization. DHL is similar to when journaling is disabled, in the sense that it incurs almost no additional overhead in terms of both I/O and computation. Our experimental results show that DHL outperforms other logging methods such as out-of-place update write-ahead logging (WAL) and in-place update multi-version B-tree (MVBT).","PeriodicalId":6709,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 36th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE)","volume":"35 1","pages":"1237-1248"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73548468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interest in the data stream mining community has increased, because of their role in improving the performance of online learning algorithms. Over the years, a myriad of drift detection methods have been proposed. However, most of these methods are single detectors, which usually work well only with a single type of drift. In this research, we propose a semi-supervised locally-weighted ensemble detector (SLED), where the relative performance among its base detectors is characterized by a set of weights learned in a semi-supervised manner. The aim of this technique is to effectively deal with both abrupt and gradual concept drifts. In our experiments, SLED is configured with ten well-known drift detectors. To evaluate the performance of SLED, we compare it with single detectors as well as state-of-the-art ensemble methods on both synthetic and real-world datasets using different performance measures. The experimental results show that SLED has fewer false positives, higher precision, and higher Matthews correlation coefficient while maintaining reasonably good performance for other measures.","PeriodicalId":6709,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 36th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE)","volume":"5 1","pages":"1838-1841"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76596511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This problem only gets exacerbated in cross-platform settings as there are many more parameters that need to be tuned. In the era of machine learning (ML), the first step to remedy this problem is to replace the cost model of the optimizer with an ML model. However, such a solution brings in two major challenges. First, the optimizer has to transform a query plan to a vector million times during plan enumeration incurring a very high overhead. Second, a lot of training data is required to effectively train the ML model. We overcome these challenges in Robopt, a novel vector-based optimizer we have built for Rheem, a cross-platform system. Robopt not only uses an ML model to prune the search space but also bases the entire plan enumeration on a set of algebraic operations that operate on vectors, which are a natural fit to the ML model. This leads to both speed-up and scale-up of the enumeration process by exploiting modern CPUs via vectorization. We also accompany Robopt with a scalable training data generator for building its ML model. Our evaluation shows that (i) the vector-based approach is more efficient and scalable than simply using an ML model and (ii) Robopt matches and, in some cases, improves Rheem’s cost-based optimizer in choosing good plans without requiring any tuning effort.","PeriodicalId":6709,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 36th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE)","volume":"178 1","pages":"1489-1500"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76851090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
