PIClean: A Probabilistic and Interactive Data Cleaning System
Summary: PIClean is a probabilistic, interactive data cleaning system that uses low-rank approximation to uncover cross-column relationships for joint error detection and repair. User feedback confirms or rejects probabilistic fixes, continually updating models to improve accuracy and coverage. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
