Interactive and Deterministic Data Cleaning: A Tossed Stone Raises a Thousand Ripples

Summary: Falcon is an interactive, deterministic, declarative data-cleaning system that repairs data with SQL UPDATEs, avoiding predefined quality rules. From one user update, it searches a lattice of repairs to yield a minimal, high-coverage set, via multi-hop search and user-guided validation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
