Entity matching (EM) refers to the problem of identifying tuple pairs in one or more relations that refer to the same real world entities. Supervised machine learning (ML) approaches, and deep learning based approaches in particular, typically achieve state-of-the-art matching results. However, these approaches require many labeled examples, in the form of matching and non-matching pairs, which are expensive and time-consuming to label. In this paper, we introduce Panda, a weakly supervised system specifically designed for EM. Panda uses the same labeling function abstraction as Snorkel, where labeling functions (LF) are user-provided programs that can generate large amounts of (somewhat noisy) labels quickly and cheaply, which can then be combined via a labeling model to generate accurate final predictions. To support users developing LFs for EM, Panda provides an integrated development environment (IDE) that lives in a modern browser architecture. Pandas IDE facilitates the development, debugging, and life-cycle management of LFs in the context of EM tasks, similar to how IDEs such as Visual Studio or Eclipse excel in general-purpose programming. Pandas IDE includes many novel features purpose-built for EM, such as smart data sampling, a builtin library of EM utility functions, automatically generated LFs, visual debugging of LFs, and finally, an EM-specific labeling model. We show in this demo that Panda IDE can greatly accelerate the development of high-quality EM solutions using weak supervision.

Entity Resolution (ER) aims to identify whether two tuples refer to the same real-world entity and is well-known to be labor-intensive. It is a prerequisite to anomaly detection, as comparing the attribute values of two matched tuples from two differ ent datasets provides one effective way to detect anomalies. Existing ER approaches, due to insufficient feature discovery or error-prone inherent characteristics, are not able to achieve stable performance. In this paper, we present CollaborER, a self-supervised entity resolution framework via multi-features collaboration. It is capable of (i) obtaining reliable ER results with zero human annotations and (ii) discovering adequate tuples features in a fault-tolerant manner. CollaborER consists of two phases, i.e., automatic label generation (ALG) and collaborative ER training (CERT). In the first phase, ALG is proposed to generate a set of positive tuple pairs and a set of negative tuple pairs. ALG guarantees the high quality of the generated tuples and hence ensures the training quality of the subsequent CERT. In the second phase, CERT is introduced to learn the matching signals by discovering graph features and sentence features of tuples collaboratively. Extensive experimental results over eight real-world ER benchmarks show that CollaborER outperforms all the existing unsupervised ER approaches and is comparable or even superior to the state-of-the-art supervised ER methods.

An end-to-end data integration system requires human feedback in several phases, including collecting training data for entity matching, debugging the resulting clusters, confirming transformations applied on these clusters for data standardization, and finally, reducing each cluster to a single, canonical representation (or golden record). The traditional wisdom is to sequentially apply the human feedback, obtained by asking specific questions, within some budget in each phase. However, these questions are highly correlated; the answer to one can influence the outcome of any of the phases of the pipeline. Hence, interleaving them has the potential to offer significant benefits. In this paper, we propose a human-in-the-loop framework that interleaves different types of questions to optimize human involvement. We propose benefit models to measure the quality improvement from asking a question, and cost models to measure the human time it takes to answer a question. We develop a question scheduling framework that judiciously selects questions to maximize the accuracy of the final golden records. Experimental results on three real-world datasets show that our holistic method significantly improves the quality of golden records from 70% to 90%, compared with the state-of-the-art approaches.
Entity resolution (ER), an important and common data cleaning problem, is about detecting data duplicate representations for the same external entities, and merging them into single representations. Relatively recently, declarative rules called match ing dependencies (MDs) have been proposed for specifying similarity conditions under which attribute values in database records are merged. In this work we show the process and the benefits of integrating three components of ER: (a) Classifiers for duplicate/non-duplicate record pairs built using machine learning (ML) techniques, (b) MDs for supporting both the blocking phase of ML and the merge itself; and (c) The use of the declarative language LogiQL -an extended form of Datalog supported by the LogicBlox platform- for data processing, and the specification and enforcement of MDs.

Relatively recently, declarative rules called match ing dependencies (MDs) have been proposed for specifying similarity conditions under which attribute values in database records are merged. In this work we show the process and the benefits of integrating four components of ER: (a) Building a classifier for duplicate/non-duplicate record pairs built using machine learning (ML) techniques; (b) Use of MDs for supporting the blocking phase of ML; (c) Record merging on the basis of the classifier results; and (d) The use of the declarative language LogiQL -an extended form of Datalog supported by the LogicBlox platform- for all activities related to data processing, and the specification and enforcement of MDs.
We study the problem of building entity tagging systems by using a few rules as weak supervision. Previous methods mostly focus on disambiguation entity types based on contexts and expert-provided rules, while assuming entity spans are given. In this work, we propose a novel method TALLOR that bootstraps high-quality logical rules to train a neural tagger in a fully automated manner. Specifically, we introduce compound rules that are composed from simple rules to increase the precision of boundary detection and generate more diverse pseudo labels. We further design a dynamic label selection strategy to ensure pseudo label quality and therefore avoid overfitting the neural tagger. Experiments on three datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms other weakly supervised methods and even rivals a state-of-the-art distantly supervised tagger with a lexicon of over 2,000 terms when starting from only 20 simple rules. Our method can serve as a tool for rapidly building taggers in emerging domains and tasks. Case studies show that learned rules can potentially explain the predicted entities.
