• Similar to Equality Generating Dependencies (EGDs) [BV84] and Nested EGDs [YP04]

Data Redundancies•E.g., title is redundantly stored•Result of “non-optimal” design of the
database schema in the presence of constraints
•Lead to: Update anomalies Increased cost for data transfer and
manipulation
•Constraints are the properties of data May not be known at the design phase

Functional Dependencies (FDs)
•FDs are used to describe constraints in relational databases
•A similar notion of FD is needed for XML
•Challenges: Target is difficult to specify due to the
hierarchical structure Set elements introduce new semantics
XML FD needs richer semantics !
![Page 12: Efficient Discovery of XML Data Redundancies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815b11550346895dc8bc4c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Previous Notions• Path Based Notion [LLL02,VLL04]
Example: {/warehouse/state/store/book/ISBN} /warehouse/state/store/book/title
Format: LHS RHS Semantics: for any two RHS nodes, same
(associated) LHS indicates same RHS
• Tree Tuple Based Notion [AL04] A tree tuple is a data tree, with exactly one data
node for each schema element Format: LHS RHS Semantics: for any two tree tuples, same LHS
indicates same RHS
![Page 13: Efficient Discovery of XML Data Redundancies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815b11550346895dc8bc4c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

• Both capture hierarchical constraints• Neither can capture set constraints• {/store/book/ISBN} /store/book/au

A New Comprehensive Notion•Generalized Tree Tuple
A data tree constructed around a pivot data node (np)
Entire subtree rooted at np is kept
All ancestors of np and their “attributes” are kept
•Tuple Class CP
The set of all generalized tree tuples, whose pivot nodes share the same path P (called pivot path)

XML FD•<CP, LHS, RHS>: LHS RHS w.r.t. CP
•Semantics:
for any two generalized tree tuple t1, t2 in CP, if they share the same LHS, they have the same RHS.

Essential Tuple Classes•Definition:
Tuple classes with pivot paths that correspond to repeatable schema elements
C/warehouse/state/store/book is essential
C/warehouse/state/store/name is not
•Express XML FDs that are expressible with non-essential tuple classes
•See paper for detailed proof
![Page 20: Efficient Discovery of XML Data Redundancies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815b11550346895dc8bc4c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
23 / 42
XML Key and Data Redundancy
• Let attribute @key uniquely identify each node in the entire data tree
• <CP, LHS> is an XML Key, when the database satisfies XML FD: LHS ./@key w.r.t. CP
• Similar to the relative key notion proposed in [BDF+01]
• Data redundancy exists if the database: Satisfies the XML FD <CP, LHS, RHS>,
But <CP, LHS> is not an XML key
RHS is redundantly stored.

Strategy•Discover satisfied XML FDs and Keys
•Data redundancies can then be discovered based on the definition
•First, we need an efficient representation of the XML data
![Page 23: Efficient Discovery of XML Data Redundancies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815b11550346895dc8bc4c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

• Each essential tuple class a relation Similar to nested relations [OY87,MNE96] All relations together form a hierarchy Tree tuples can be reconstructed by joining @key
with parent

Overview of the Discovery Process•Only interested in minimal FDs•Bottom-Up•At each relation
Discover intra-relation FDs and Keys Discover inter-relation FDs and Keys
involving descendant relations Generate candidate inter-relation FDs and
Keys for examination at the parent level
•Attribute Partition as the basic data structure
![Page 27: Efficient Discovery of XML Data Redundancies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815b11550346895dc8bc4c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Attribute Partition•Groups tuples
according to the attribute value
•∏{price} for Cbook = { {t6,t20}, {t13} }
∏{@key} for Cbook = { {t6}, {t20}, {t13} }
∏{price, @key} for Cbook = { {t6}, {t20}, {t13} }
•FD: LHS RHS w.r.t. CP is satisfied iff:
∏LHS∪RHS = ∏LHS

Set Attribute Partition • Generated through
refinement Initialize ∏{au} for R_book to be { {t6, t13, t20} }
∏{@text} for R_au = { {t10, t24}, {t11, t25} }
{ {t6, t20}, {t6, t20} }
∏au for R_book =
{ {t6, t20}, {t13} }
• ∏au can then be used as
a normal partition
R_au@key parent @text 10 6 R.R. 11 6 J.G. 24 20 R.R. 25 20 J.G.
R_book@key parent ISBN title price 6 4 …269 DB $59.9 13 12 …269 DB $51.1 20 19 …269 DB $59.9

Refine ∏{au} using partitions in ∏{@text}

Discovery Algorithms•DiscoverFD:
Discover intra-relation FDs and Keys Similar to existing relational algorithms
•DiscoverXFD: Discover inter-relation FDs and Keys Key component:
Candidate inter-relation XML FD generation

Generating Candidate Inter-Relation FDs
• Let P' be a parent relation of P
• Parent satisfaction property For LHS∪X RHS w.r.t. CP to hold for any
attribute set X in relation P', LHS∪{./parent} RHS w.r.t. CP must hold
• Child implication property For LHS∪X RHS w.r.t. CP to be a non-trivial FD
for any attribute set X in relation P', LHS RHS w.r.t. CP must not hold
• An FD is a candidate inter-relation FD if it satisfies both properties

Real Datasets
• DBLP contains a fair amount of redundancy, as noted earlier in [AL04] as well
• ~ 10% redundancies in PIR (measured as # of redundant elements over total # of elements), schema modification reported to PIR
![Page 33: Efficient Discovery of XML Data Redundancies](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815b11550346895dc8bc4c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Scalability on XMark
• Linear in terms of scale factor (# of elements) – even though exponential in theory
• Orders of magnitude faster than direct application of a state-of-the-art relational discovery algorithm The latter takes over 3 hours to run on XMark scale factor 1
