Query-Driven Approach to Entity Resolution
Summary: Proposes a Query-Driven Approach (QDA) for on-the-fly data cleaning, doing just-enough steps to answer a given selection query. Empirical evaluation shows QDA outperforms traditional full-cleaning techniques in query-driven data cleaning tasks. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
