New Splice system optimizes data source selection for ML tasks

Researchers have developed Splice, a novel system for selecting optimal data sources for machine learning tasks. Splice aims to improve downstream task utility by identifying subsets of discovered data sources that avoid introducing noise or distribution shifts. Two faster variants, Splice-DP and Splice-Grad, were also introduced, which leverage meta-learning and gradient alignment to estimate source contributions, achieving significant speedups with comparable or improved results on classification and regression tasks.

    Scalable Source Selection for Machine Learning Tasks

    arXiv:2507.22186v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Given a query table, existing data lake discovery techniques seek to identify data sources related to the query table through schema similarity and joinability. The discovered sources, however, are not always useful for do…
