Data-Semantics-Aware Recommendation of Diverse Pivot Tables

Summary: SAGE: data-semantics-aware recommendation of k-budgeted, interpretable pivot tables with explicit diversification beyond redundant top-k. Key contributions: utility/diversity model exploiting data semantics + scalable greedy search over the combinatorial attribute space. (summarized by gpt-5.4-mini on Apr 11 2026)
