Approximating Multi-Dimensional Aggregate Range Queries Over Real Attributes
Summary: Proposes a variable-size, overlapping-bucket histogram that adapts to local density to approximate multi-dimensional real-valued data distributions more compactly and accurately. Generalizes kernel density estimation for efficient approximation of aggregate range queries and compares favorably with existing methods on real and synthetic datasets.
