LIMA: Denial Constraint Discovery in Large Dynamic Databases
Summary: LIMA continuously discovers and maintains denial constraints over large, evolving databases, rather than recomputing them on demand. Its scalable, low-overhead approach makes practical metadata inference possible for expressive rules encompassing FDs, keys, and order dependencies. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Aug 28 2026)
