Selectivity Estimation for Queries Containing Predicates over Set-Valued Attributes

Summary: Introduces selectivity estimation for predicates on set-valued attrs via factorization, turning containment into numeric predicates. Proposes ST and ST-hist factorization with Postgres, NeuroCard, and DeepDB, for improved accuracy and efficiency. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
