Robust and Efficient Fuzzy Match for Online Data Cleaning
Summary: Proposes a novel similarity function addressing limitations of fuzzy-match metrics for data cleaning. Develops an efficient fuzzy-match algorithm for real-time validation/cleansing of incoming tuples against reference tables; demonstrated on real datasets. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
