We study the problem of computing similarity joins under edit distance on a set of strings. Edit similarity joins is a fundamental problem in databases, data mining and bioinformatics. It finds important applications in data cleaning and integration, collaborative filtering, genome sequence assembly, etc. This problem has attracted significant attention in the past two decades. However, all previous algorithms either cannot scale well to long strings and large similarity thresholds, or suffer from imperfect accuracy. In this paper we propose a new algorithm for edit similarity joins using a novel string partition based approach. We show mathematically that with high probability our algorithm achieves a perfect accuracy, and runs in linear time plus a data-dependent verification step. Experiments on real world datasets show that our algorithm significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithms for edit similarity joins, and achieves perfect accuracy on all the datasets that we have tested.

A major algorithmic challenge in designing applications intended for secure remote execution is ensuring that they are oblivious to their inputs, in the sense that their memory access patterns do not leak sensitive information to the server. This pro
blem is particularly relevant to cloud databases that wish to allow queries over the clients encrypted data. One of the major obstacles to such a goal is the join operator, which is non-trivial to implement obliviously without resorting to generic but inefficient solutions like Oblivious RAM (ORAM). We present an oblivious algorithm for equi-joins which (up to a logarithmic factor) matches the optimal $O(nlog n)$ complexity of the standard non-secure sort-merge join (on inputs producing $O(n)$ outputs). We do not use use expensive primitives like ORAM or rely on unrealistic hardware or security assumptions. Our approach, which is based on sorting networks and novel provably-oblivious constructions, is conceptually simple, easily verifiable, and very efficient in practice. Its data-independent algorithmic structure makes it secure in various different settings for remote computation, even in those that are known to be vulnerable to certain side-channel attacks (such as Intel SGX) or with strict requirements for low circuit complexity (like secure multiparty computation). We confirm that our approach is easily realizable through a compact implementation which matches our expectations for performance and is shown, both formally and empirically, to possess the desired security characteristics.
Fuzzy similarity join is an important database operator widely used in practice. So far the research community has focused exclusively on optimizing fuzzy join textit{scalability}. However, practitioners today also struggle to optimize fuzzy-join tex
tit{quality}, because they face a daunting space of parameters (e.g., distance-functions, distance-thresholds, tokenization-options, etc.), and often have to resort to a manual trial-and-error approach to program these parameters in order to optimize fuzzy-join quality. This key challenge of automatically generating high-quality fuzzy-join programs has received surprisingly little attention thus far. In this work, we study the problem of auto-program fuzzy-joins. Leveraging a geometric interpretation of distance-functions, we develop an unsupervised textsc{Auto-FuzzyJoin} framework that can infer suitable fuzzy-join programs on given input tables, without requiring explicit human input such as labeled training data. Using textsc{Auto-FuzzyJoin}, users only need to provide two input tables $L$ and $R$, and a desired precision target $tau$ (say 0.9). textsc{Auto-FuzzyJoin} leverages the fact that one of the input is a reference table to automatically program fuzzy-joins that meet the precision target $tau$ in expectation, while maximizing fuzzy-join recall (defined as the number of correctly joined records). Experiments on both existing benchmarks and a new benchmark with 50 fuzzy-join tasks created from Wikipedia data suggest that the proposed textsc{Auto-FuzzyJoin} significantly outperforms existing unsupervised approaches, and is surprisingly competitive even against supervised approaches (e.g., Magellan and DeepMatcher) when 50% of ground-truth labels are used as training data.
We propose the algorithms for performing multiway joins using a new type of coarse grain reconfigurable hardware accelerator~-- ``Plasticine~-- that, compared with other accelerators, emphasizes high compute capability and high on-chip communication
bandwidth. Joining three or more relations in a single step, i.e. multiway join, is efficient when the join of any two relations yields too large an intermediate relation. We show at least 200X speedup for a sequence of binary hash joins execution on Plasticine over CPU. We further show that in some realistic cases, a Plasticine-like accelerator can make 3-way joins more efficient than a cascade of binary hash joins on the same hardware, by a factor of up to 45X.
Local sensitivity of a query Q given a database instance D, i.e. how much the output Q(D) changes when a tuple is added to D or deleted from D, has many applications including query analysis, outlier detection, and in differential privacy. However, i
t is NP-hard to find local sensitivity of a conjunctive query in terms of the size of the query, even for the class of acyclic queries. Although the complexity is polynomial when the query size is fixed, the naive algorithms are not efficient for large databases and queries involving multiple joins. In this paper, we present a novel approach to compute local sensitivity of counting queries involving join operations by tracking and summarizing tuple sensitivities -- the maximum change a tuple can cause in the query result when it is added or removed. We give algorithms for the sensitivity problem for full acyclic join queries using join trees, that run in polynomial time in both the size of the database and query for an interesting sub-class of queries, which we call doubly acyclic queries that include path queries, and in polynomial time in combined complexity when the maximum degree in the join tree is bounded. Our algorithms can be extended to certain non-acyclic queries using generalized hypertree decompositions. We evaluate our approach experimentally, and show applications of our algorithms to obtain better results for differential privacy by orders of magnitude.
We introduce and study the problem of computing the similarity self-join in a streaming context (SSSJ), where the input is an unbounded stream of items arriving continuously. The goal is to find all pairs of items in the stream whose similarity is gr
eater than a given threshold. The simplest formulation of the problem requires unbounded memory, and thus, it is intractable. To make the problem feasible, we introduce the notion of time-dependent similarity: the similarity of two items decreases with the difference in their arrival time. By leveraging the properties of this time-dependent similarity function, we design two algorithmic frameworks to solve the sssj problem. The first one, MiniBatch (MB), uses existing index-based filtering techniques for the static version of the problem, and combines them in a pipeline. The second framework, Streaming (STR), adds time filtering to the existing indexes, and integrates new time-based bounds deeply in the working of the algorithms. We also introduce a new indexing technique (L2), which is based on an existing state-of-the-art indexing technique (L2AP), but is optimized for the streaming case. Extensive experiments show that the STR algorithm, when instantiated with the L2 index, is the most scalable option across a wide array of datasets and parameters.
