Discovering Similarity Inclusion Dependencies
Summary: Introduces similarity inclusion dependencies, relaxing INDs to tolerate dissimilar values on dirty data for foreign-key candidate discovery. Sawfish is the first algorithm to discover all similarity INDs, merging traditional IND discovery with string similarity joins, a sliding window, and lazy validation; up to 6.5× faster.
