Is Integer Linear Programming All You Need for Deletion Propagation? A Unified and Practical Approach for Generalized Deletion Propagation

Summary: A unified ILP framework subsumes known and new deletion-propagation variants, including self-joins, unions, and bag semantics. Its coarse-grained instance-optimal solver automatically exploits data structure, achieves PTIME on tractable cases, and often outperforms specialized methods.
