Abstract

Data quality is essential in many applications. To reduce the harm of the data in low quality, data cleaning is one of effective solutions. However, existing data clean systems can clean data in some special aspect and require relative complex input. To clean data with complex quality problem for various kinds of users, we develop HITCleaner as a light weight online data cleaning system which could handle various types of data quality problem. HITCleaner provides users an elegant interface to upload dirty data and download cleaned data. It also permits users to clean data with various parameters and components flexibly. In this demonstration, we present a tour of HITCleaner, highlighting a few of its key features. We will demonstrate examples for data cleaning. In particular, we will show the flexibility of HITCleaner for cleaning data.
