Abstract

An outlier index for a database and a given workload is generated by identifying sub-relations of tuples in the database induced by selection and group by conditions in queries in the workload. A variance is then generated for values in each sub-relation. Sub-relations having higher variances are selected, and outliers from such sub-relations having higher variances are generated.
