Lightweight Cardinality Estimation in LSM-based Systems
Summary: Lightweight statistics for LSM stores; piggybacks on flush/merge to stay updated under high ingestion. Uses equi-width/equi-height histograms and wavelets for cardinality estimates, implemented on Apache AsterixDB with accuracy and overhead evaluation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
