rkHit: Representative Query with Uncertain Preference
Summary: Proposes rkHit, selecting r representative tuples under a distribution over scoring functions to maximize the probability a chosen tuple is attractive in top-k (expected user satisfaction). In 2D, 2DH gives an exact polynomial algorithm; rkHit is NP-hard for d≥3; 3D offers a (1−1/e)-approximation 3DH under uniform preferences while MDH handles any dimension/distribution via sampling+clustering; experiments show efficiency.
