Answering Queries using Views over Probabilistic XML: Complexity and Tractability
Summary: Characterizes when XPath queries over probabilistic XML can be answered from views, distinguishing persistent identifiers and identifier-free semantics. Gives PTime criteria and algorithms for compensation/intersection rewritings, exposing cases where answers are retrievable but probabilities are not computable.
