FindYourFavorite: An Interactive System for Finding the User's Favorite Tuple in the Database
Summary: FindYourFavorite models user preference with a utility hyperplane and pruning to locate favorite tuple in databases with few interactions. Unlike prior work with artificial queries, it always shows true database tuples, enabling low-effort discovery. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
