In MapReduce frame, parallel technique is often used to execute data cleaning in high scalability mode, but due to the lack of effective design, there are amounts of computing redundancy in the process of data cleaning, which results in lower performance. In this research, we found that some tasks often are carried out multiple times on same input files, or require same operation results in the process of data cleaning. For this problem, we proposed a new optimization technique that is based on task merge. By merging simple or redundancy computations on same input files, the number of the loop computation in MapReduce can be reduced greatly. The experiment shows, by this means, the overall system runtime is significantly reduced, which proves that the process of data cleaning is optimized. In this paper, we optimized several modules of data cleaning such as entity identification, inconsistent data restoration, and missing value filling. Experimental results show that the proposed method in this paper can increase efficiency for grain big data cleaning.展开更多

This system combines features of both rule based systems and rule based data cleaning frameworks. The important advantages of our system are threefold. First, it aims at proposing a strong and unified rule form based on first order structure that permits the representation and management of all the types of rules and their quality via some characteristics. Second, it leads to increase the quality of rules which conditions the quality of data cleaning. Third, it uses an appropriate knowledge acquisition process, which is the weakest task in the current rule and knowledge based systems. As several research works have shown that data cleaning is rather driven by domain knowledge than by data, we have identified and analyzed the properties that distinguish knowledge and rules from data for better determining the most components of the proposed system. In order to illustrate our system, we also present a first experiment with a case study at health sector where we demonstrate how the system is useful for the improvement of data quality. The autonomy, extensibility and platform-independency of the proposed rule management system facilitate its incorporation in any system that is interested in data quality management.展开更多
