We introduce a few-shot learning framework for error detection. We show that data augmentation (a form of weak supervision) is key to training high-quality, ML-based error detection models that require minimal human involvement.

Knowledge graphs are considered an important representation that lies between free text on one hand and fully-structured relational data on the other. Knowledge graphs are a backbone of many applications on the Web. With the rise of many large-scale open-domain knowledge graphs like Freebase, DBpedia, and Yago, various applications including document retrieval, question answering, and data integration have been relying on them.
Speaker: Ricardo Jimenez-Peris
Abstract: The talk will present the ultra-scalable distributed algorithm to process transactional management and how it has been implemented as part of the LeanXcale database. The talk will go into the details on how ACID properties have been scaled out independently in a composable manner.
