Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a novel framework for estimating OLAP queries over uncertain and imprecise multidimensional data streams, along with three relevant research contributions: (i) a probabilistic data stream model, which describes both precise and imprecise multidimensional data stream readings in terms of nice confidence-interval-based Probability Distribution Functions (PDF); (ii) a possible-world semantics for uncertain and imprecise multidimensional data streams, which is based on an innovative data-driven approach that exploits "natural" features of OLAP data, such as the presence of clusters and high correlations; (iii) an innovative approach for providing theoretically-founded estimates to OLAP queries over uncertain and imprecise multidimensional data streams that exploits the well-recognized probabilistic estimators theory.
