ABS: a System for Scalable Approximate Queries with Accuracy Guarantees

Summary: Analytical Bootstrap merges fast analytic error estimates with bootstrap for AQP. ABS uses a probabilistic-relational model and algebra to predict AQP distributions, enabling fast, general bootstrap-based accuracy estimates for SQL. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
