Data quality assessment from provenance graphs

Data quality assessment from provenance graphs
Data quality assessment from provenance graphs
Provenance is a domain-independent means to represent what happened in an application, which can help verify data and infer data quality. Provenance patterns can manifest real-world phenomena such as a significant interest in a piece of content, providing an indication of its quality, or even issues such as undesirable interactions within a group of contributors. This paper presents an application-independent methodology for analyzing data based on the network metrics of provenance graphs to learn about such patterns and to relate them to data quality in an automated manner. Validating this method on the provenance records of CollabMap, an online crowdsourcing mapping application, we demonstrated an accuracy level of over 95% for the trust classification of data generated by the crowd therein.

Abstract

Provenance is a domain-independent means to represent what happened in an application, which can help verify data and infer data quality. Provenance patterns can manifest real-world phenomena such as a significant interest in a piece of content, providing an indication of its quality, or even issues such as undesirable interactions within a group of contributors. This paper presents an application-independent methodology for analyzing data based on the network metrics of provenance graphs to learn about such patterns and to relate them to data quality in an automated manner. Validating this method on the provenance records of CollabMap, an online crowdsourcing mapping application, we demonstrated an accuracy level of over 95% for the trust classification of data generated by the crowd therein.
