Robust Query Driven Cardinality Estimation under Changing Workloads

Summary: Robustifies query-driven cardinality estimation under workload/data drift using feature masking and join-consistent sampling bitmaps. Enables strong cross-workload and update generalization, improving runtimes while avoiding the catastrophic regressions of standard models. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
