VACUUM

VACUUM[1] [2][3][4][5] is a set of normative guidance principles for achieving training and test dataset quality for structured datasets in data science and machine learning. The garbage-in, garbage out principle motivates a solution to the problem of data quality but does not offer a specific solution. Unlike the majority of the ad-hoc data quality assessment metrics often used by practitioners[6] VACUUM specifies qualitative principles for data quality management and serves as a basis for defining more detailed quantitative metrics of data quality.[7]

VACUUM is an acronym that stands for:

  • valid
  • accurate
  • consistent
  • uniform
  • unified
  • model
