Sparcle: Boosting the Accuracy of Data Cleaning Systems through Spatial Awareness

Summary: Sparcle augments rule-based data cleaning for spatial attributes by relaxing co-occurrence to spatial neighborhoods and applying distance-weighted rule satisfaction. Integrated into a state-of-the-art cleaner, it improves cleaning accuracy on real and synthetic spatial datasets. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
