We present a novel deep-learning-based method to cluster words in documents which we apply to detect and recognize tables given the OCR output. We interpret table structure bottom-up as a graph of relations between pairs of words (belonging…
Motivated by the increasing demand for multi-source data integration in various scientific fields, in this paper we study matrix completion in scenarios where the data exhibits certain block-wise missing structures -- specifically, where…
The need for Knowledge and Data Discovery Management Systems (KDDMS) that support ad hoc data mining queries has been long recognized. A significant amount of research has gone into building tightly coupled systems that integrate…
Data scientists today search large data lakes to discover and integrate datasets. In order to bring together disparate data sources, dataset discovery methods rely on some form of schema matching: the process of establishing correspondences…
We address the problem of learning a distributed representation of entities in a relational database using a low-dimensional embedding. Low-dimensional embeddings aim to encapsulate a concise vector representation for an underlying dataset…
In Novel Class Discovery (NCD), the goal is to find new classes in an unlabeled set given a labeled set of known but different classes. While NCD has recently gained attention from the community, no framework has yet been proposed for…
We study the problem of discovering joinable datasets at scale. This is, how to automatically discover pairs of attributes in a massive collection of independent, heterogeneous datasets that can be joined. Exact (e.g., based on distinct…
This paper provides a new similarity detection algorithm. Given an input set of multi-dimensional data points, where each data point is assumed to be multi-dimensional, and an additional reference data point for similarity finding, the…
The generalisation of Neural Networks (NN) to multiple datasets is often overlooked in literature due to NNs typically being optimised for specific data sources. This becomes especially challenging in time-series-based multi-dataset models…
Missing values of varying patterns and rates in real-world tabular data pose a significant challenge in developing reliable data-driven models. The most commonly used statistical and machine learning methods for missing value imputation may…
Embeddings are now used to underpin a wide variety of data management tasks, including entity resolution, dataset search and semantic type detection. Such applications often involve datasets with numerical columns, but there has been more…
We present a novel approach to template matching that is efficient, can handle partial occlusions, and comes with provable performance guarantees. A key component of the method is a reduction that transforms the problem of searching a…
In this study, we tackle Generalized Category Discovery (GCD) via a Relational Retrieval perspective, explicitly coupling labeled and unlabeled data through bidirectional knowledge transfer. While existing methods treat these sources…
Hypergraphs are generalisation of graphs in which a hyperedge can connect any number of vertices. It can describe n-ary relationships and high-order information among entities compared to conventional graphs. In this paper, we study the…
Master Data Management (MDM) ensures data integrity, consistency, and reliability across an organization's systems. I introduce a novel complex match and merge algorithm optimized for real-time MDM solutions. The proposed method accurately…
We study the problem of discovering joinable datasets at scale. We approach the problem from a learning perspective relying on profiles. These are succinct representations that capture the underlying characteristics of the schemata and data…
In many real-world AD applications including computer security and fraud prevention, the anomaly detector must be configurable by the human analyst to minimize the effort on false positives. One important way to configure the detector is by…
We study a class of graph analytics SQL queries, which we call relationship queries. Relationship queries are a wide superset of fixed-length graph reachability queries and of tree pattern queries. Intuitively, it discovers target entities…
In enterprise data pipelines, data insertions occur periodically and may impact downstream services if data quality issues are not addressed. Typically, such problems can be investigated and fixed by on-call engineers, but locating the…
Large collections of tabular data from data lakes, web tables and open data portals often originate from heterogeneous sources, leading to representational inconsistencies. Understanding and organizing such repositories therefore remains a…
