Machine learning algorithms are commonly specified in linear algebra (LA). LA expressions can be rewritten into more efficient forms, by taking advantage of input properties such as sparsity, as well as program properties such as common subexpressions and fusible operators. The complex interaction among these properties impact on the execution cost poses a challenge to optimizing compilers. Existing compilers resort to intricate heuristics that complicate the codebase and add maintenance cost but fail to search through the large space of equivalent LA expressions to find the cheapest one. We introduce a general optimization technique for LA expressions, by converting the LA expressions into Relational Algebra (RA) expressions, optimizing the latter, then converting the result back to (optimized) LA expressions. One major advantage of this method is that it is complete, meaning that any equivalent LA expression can be found using the equivalence rules in RA. The challenge is the major size of the search space, and we address this by adopting and extending a technique used in compilers, called equality saturation. We integrate the optimizer into SystemML and validate it empirically across a spectrum of machine learning tasks; we show that we can derive all existing hand-coded optimizations in SystemML, and perform new optimizations that lead to speedups from 1.2X to 5X.

We present a new approach to e-matching based on relational join; in particular, we apply recent database query execution techniques to guarantee worst-case optimal run time. Compared to the conventional backtracking approach that always searches the e-graph top down, our new relational e-matching approach can better exploit pattern structure by searching the e-graph according to an optimized query plan. We also establish the first data complexity result for e-matching, bounding run time as a function of the e-graph size and output size. We prototyped and evaluated our technique in the state-of-the-art egg e-graph framework. Compared to a conventional baseline, relational e-matching is simpler to implement and orders of magnitude faster in practice.
The practical success of deep learning has sparked interest in improving relational table tasks, like data search, with models trained on large table corpora. Existing corpora primarily contain tables extracted from HTML pages, limiting the capabilit y to represent offline database tables. To train and evaluate high-capacity models for applications beyond the Web, we need additional resources with tables that resemble relational database tables. Here we introduce GitTables, a corpus of currently 1.7M relational tables extracted from GitHub. Our continuing curation aims at growing the corpus to at least 20M tables. We annotate table columns in GitTables with more than 2K different semantic types from Schema.org and DBpedia. Our column annotations consist of semantic types, hierarchical relations, range types and descriptions. The corpus is available at https://gittables.github.io. Our analysis of GitTables shows that its structure, content, and topical coverage differ significantly from existing table corpora. We evaluate our annotation pipeline on hand-labeled tables from the T2Dv2 benchmark and find that our approach provides results on par with human annotations. We demonstrate a use case of GitTables by training a semantic type detection model on it and obtain high prediction accuracy. We also show that the same model trained on tables from theWeb generalizes poorly.
Financial transactions, internet search, and data analysis are all placing increasing demands on databases. SQL, NoSQL, and NewSQL databases have been developed to meet these demands and each offers unique benefits. SQL, NoSQL, and NewSQL databases a lso rely on different underlying mathematical models. Polystores seek to provide a mechanism to allow applications to transparently achieve the benefits of diverse databases while insulating applications from the details of these databases. Integrating the underlying mathematics of these diverse databases can be an important enabler for polystores as it enables effective reasoning across different databases. Associative arrays provide a common approach for the mathematics of polystores by encompassing the mathematics found in different databases: sets (SQL), graphs (NoSQL), and matrices (NewSQL). Prior work presented the SQL relational model in terms of associative arrays and identified key mathematical properties that are preserved within SQL. This work provides the rigorous mathematical definitions, lemmas, and theorems underlying these properties. Specifically, SQL Relational Algebra deals primarily with relations - multisets of tuples - and operations on and between these relations. These relations can be modeled as associative arrays by treating tuples as non-zero rows in an array. Operations in relational algebra are built as compositions of standard operations on associative arrays which mirror their matrix counterparts. These constructions provide insight into how relational algebra can be handled via array operations. As an example application, the composition of two projection operations is shown to also be a projection, and the projection of a union is shown to be equal to the union of the projections.
We consider the question: what is the abstraction that should be implemented by the computational engine of a machine learning system? Current machine learning systems typically push whole tensors through a series of compute kernels such as matrix mu ltiplications or activation functions, where each kernel runs on an AI accelerator (ASIC) such as a GPU. This implementation abstraction provides little built-in support for ML systems to scale past a single machine, or for handling large models with matrices or tensors that do not easily fit into the RAM of an ASIC. In this paper, we present an alternative implementation abstraction called the tensor relational algebra (TRA). The TRA is a set-based algebra based on the relational algebra. Expressions in the TRA operate over binary tensor relations, where keys are multi-dimensional arrays and values are tensors. The TRA is easily executed with high efficiency in a parallel or distributed environment, and amenable to automatic optimization. Our empirical study shows that the optimized TRA-based back-end can significantly outperform alternatives for running ML workflows in distributed clusters.
Variability inherently exists in databases in various contexts which creates database variants. For example, variants of a database could have different schemas/content (database evolution problem), variants of a database could root from different so urces (data integration problem), variants of a database could be deployed differently for specific application domain (deploying a database for different configurations of a software system), etc. Unfortunately, while there are specific solutions to each of the problems arising in these contexts, there is no general solution that accounts for variability in databases and addresses managing variability within a database. In this paper, we formally define variational databases (VDBs) and statically-typed variational relational algebra (VRA) to query VDBs---both database and queries explicitly account for variation. We also design and implement variational database management system (VDBMS) to run variational queries over a VDB effectively and efficiently. To assess this, we generate two VDBs from real-world databases in the context of software development and database evolution with a set of experimental queries for each.
