Jesus Camacho Rodriguez updated HIVE-10770:
-------------------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
> Recognize additional common factors in Filter predicates
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-10770
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10770
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CBO
> Reporter: Jesus Camacho Rodriguez
> Assignee: Jesus Camacho Rodriguez
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, we canonize predicates at the term level (i.e. "a or b or a"
> becomes "a or b" but we do not attempt to recognize terms that are
> equivalent). Further, we do not exploit e.g. the symmetry of '=' (i.e. a = b
> iff b = a).
> - A first extension would be to normalize comparisons between field
> references and literals so that the lower field reference is always on the
> left. So, "$6 = $3" becomes "$3 = $6"; "$6 > $3" becomes "$3< $6". And
> "literal <= $5" becomes "$5 >= literal". This would not damage performance,
> and would improve a few plans.
> - Another possible extension. Given the predicate "(a or b) and ((x and a) or
> (y and b))", the first factor can be removed so the expression consists only
> of "(x and a) or (y and b)".
> One possible way to recognize such cases is to transform the second factor to
> CNF i.e. "(x or y) and (x or b) and (a or y) and (a or b)", and as it
> contains "(a or b)", we would know that we can discard it. Then we could just
> use the original expression i.e. "(x and a) or (y and b)" in the predicate,
> once we have done the check.
