Extended Statistics :
In releases prior to 11g , if we execute a query which includes multiple predicates in where conditions,it is impossible for the optimizer to calculate the correct selectivity of these predicates as it had no way of knowing if the columns were related or not.This makes working out the selectivity of the column group very difficult.
In Oracle Database 11g, there is a new kind of statistic, called multi-column statistics, which is a type of extended stat. Using this feature, you can actually create associations between different columns to help the optimizer make better decisions
Extended statistics
1) Multicolumn stats
2) Function-Based Stats
