Query Flocks: A Generalization of Association-Rule Mining
Summary: Query Flocks generalizes association-rule mining to a class of patterns via a generate-and-test framework for data. In Datalog, query-safety enumerates candidates for a generalized a-priori, enabling cost-based optimization or dynamic pruning during execution. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
