A Combined Method for Spatial Join Selectivity Estimation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Spatial join selectivity is one of most important and time-consuming operations in spatial databases. The method of Power Laws is one of proposed methods that can be applied to point datasets perfectly. This paper presents a method that combines the Power Laws with MP Histogram Statistic, to calculate spatial join selectivity of polyline feature data-sets, or polygon feature data-sets or more complex feature data-sets. The spatial join selectivity is calculated with the proposed method and compared with that of the MP Histogram Statistic, and the experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible.
