Netside where knowledge is shared, ideas are spread.

[Notes] CSCI 585 discussion 5 BI

What’s the ‘big idea’?

  • there is already so much data, take use of them

fractal curves (eg. Koch)?

  • every node of the structure can have a same structure

ROLLUP vs CUBE?

  • Generally CUBE and ROLLUP are used for reporting purposes and they do the Subtotal and Grand total. CUBE generates a result set that shows aggregates for all combinations of values in the selected columns and ROLLUP generates a result set that shows aggregates for a hierarchy of values in the selected columns.

Your own examples of star, snowflake dims?

Z curve - what other such curves? (can use to index)

  • index 2d data to 1d
  • hilbert curve, sierpinski curve

QMC?

  • (Quasi-Monte Carlo method) use random number to index random number
