A survey on flexible/restricted skyline and their applicability
Skyline and Top-k are two of the most important methods to extract information from datasets, but both come with their drawbacks, that's why lately some new technics that try to mix the features of the two have been studied. In this survey three new operators are analysed, F-Skyline, ORU/ORD, and $ε$-Skyline. After giving the main ideas behind those and their properties, they are compered on 3 fundamental features such as personalization, cardinality control, and generalization to guide the user to choose the best one for any task.
