What is a key challenge in data integration systems when dealing with conflicting data?
What is a key challenge in data integration systems when dealing with conflicting data?
- Ignoring conflicting values from different sources
- Resolving conflicts and discovering true values (correct)
- Ensuring all sources provide the same set of values
- Copying information from one source to another
How do data integration systems typically identify true values from conflicting information?
How do data integration systems typically identify true values from conflicting information?
- By selecting the values provided by the minority of sources
- By applying voting and choosing the values provided by the majority of sources (correct)
- By choosing the values with the highest numerical value
- By ignoring all values and starting from scratch
Why can truth discovery be extremely tricky in data integration systems?
Why can truth discovery be extremely tricky in data integration systems?
- Because all sources always provide accurate information
- Because false values can be spread through copying, making it challenging to discern the truth (correct)
- Because false values are never spread through copying
- Due to the limited number of sources available
