Don’t be SCAREd: Use SCalable Automatic REpairing with Maximal Likelihood and Bounded Changes

Summary: SCARE uses maximal likelihood under learned distribution to select replacements; a metric balances gain and changes. Horizontal partitioning with local-to-global aggregation enables scalable, bounded-change repairs; experiments show efficiency. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
