Consistent Query Answers in Inconsistent Probabilistic Databases
Summary: All-possible-repairs semantics for inconsistent probabilistic databases, modeling repairs as a graph of repair worlds. CQA reduces to querying repaired possible worlds; adds pruning for range, join, and top-k to curb exponential costs, with experiments. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
