Erica: Query Refinement for Diversity Constraint Satisfaction
Summary: Adds diversity-aware constraints to relational selection queries by computing minimal predicate modifications so outputs meet cardinality targets for multiple, possibly overlapping demographic groups. Implements Erica—an interactive system and algorithms for minimal query refinements—and validates them on real datasets and institutional diversity requirements.
