SlimShot: In-Database Probabilistic Inference for Knowledge Bases
Summary: SlimShot converts MLNs to a tuple-independent probabilistic DB for in-database inference on knowledge bases. Techniques: safe sampling with query eval, joint num/den estimation, adaptive proposals by sample size, enabling formal error guarantees. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
