Towards Better Bounds for Finding Quasi-Identifiers *
Summary: Improves bounds for epsilon-separation keys (quasi-identifiers): Θ(m/√ε) uniform-sampling suffices, beating Motwani–Xu’s Θ(m/ε) baseline and speeding discovery. Provides tight uniform-sampling limits and sketching costs: strong failure requires Θ(√(m/ε)) samples; constant δ needs Ω(√(log m/ε)); coordinate-sketching uses Ω(mk log(1/ε)) space, vs Θ(mk/(αε^2)) with sampling.
