HYPER: Hypothetical Reasoning With What-If and How-To Queries Using a Probabilistic Causal Approach

Summary: HYPER enables what-if and how-to hypothetical reasoning over data with probabilistic causal dependencies, capturing cross-attribute effects from updates. Extending SQL with new operators, it defines semantics and algorithms grounded in causality and probabilistic databases, with optimizations and experimental evaluation.
