Search Driven Analysis of Heterogeneous XML Data

Summary: SEDA: a search-driven interactive system to explore heterogeneous XML via keyword queries and result summaries to discover attributes, dimensions, and facts. Maps query results to facts/dimensions, auto-derives a star schema and instantiates it for OLAP, enabling rapid prototyping without manual shredding. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
