Supporting OLAP Operations over Imperfectly Integrated Taxonomies

Summary: OLAP over imperfectly integrated taxonomies; intersections in merged concepts break the taxonomy and hinder drill-down. Proposes cost-based un-classification and a bottom-up preprocessing approach to minimize imprecision while enabling navigation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
