Interactively Discovering and Ranking Desired Tuples without Writing SQL Queries
Summary: DExPlorer enables discovering and ranking desired tuples without SQL, addressing analysts facing complex conditions and unknown data. Users iteratively annotate true/false labels and pairwise or ranked preferences over system-provided tuples to achieve rapid discovery and ranking with few interactions.
