Concise Descriptions of Subsets of Structured Sets
Summary: Formulate L‑MDL: find the shortest expression in a language L that defines a subset of a structured set modeled by a set cover, capturing hierarchies (XML) and multidimensional/OLAP schemas. Provide complexity results, an efficient hierarchical algorithm, and applications to result summarization and ROLAP/XML query optimization. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
