We ran our experiments using Windows 10 WSL Operating System on a machine with an Intel Core i7 2.40GHz processor with 16GB RAM. All experiments used the PostgreSQL 13.0 database system.
The intention of the experiments was to determine whether queries over $\bi$ instances in practice generate a lot of cancellations or not. Recall that by definition of $\bi$, a query result cannot be derived by a self-join between tuples belonging to the same block.
For this purpose we used the MayBMS data generator~\cite{pdbench} tool to generate uncertain versions of TPCH tables. We then ran $\poly_1$, $\poly_2$, and $\poly_3$ from~\cite{U-relations}, all of which are modified versions of TPC-H queries $\poly_3$, $\poly_6$, and $\poly_7$ where all aggregations have been dropped.
As written, the queries disallow $\bi$ cross terms. We ran all queries, and then rewrote the queries so as not to filter out the cross terms. The results show that in practice, there are little to no cancelling terms, as shown in \Cref{fig:experiment-bidb-cancel}. \Cref{tbl:cancel} has the number of result tuples returned when the query filters out tuples that are cancelled by $\bi$ constraints, the number of output tuples when the cancelled tuples are included in the result, and the difference between the two.

Query & Cancellations Filtered & Cancellations Included & Difference\\
\hline
$\poly_1$ & $46,714$ & $46,768$ & $54$\\
$\poly_2$ & $179.917$ & $179,917$ & $0$\\
$\poly_3$ & $11,535$ & $11,535$ & $0$\\
