Description
Multidimensional data have various representations. Thanks to their simplicity in modeling multidimensional data and the availability of various mathematical tools (such as tensor decompositions) that support multi-aspect analysis of such data, tensors are increasingly being used in many application domains including scientific data management, sensor data management, and social network data analysis. Relational model, on the other hand, enables semantic manipulation of data using relational operators, such as projection, selection, Cartesian-product, and set operators. For many multidimensional data applications, tensor operations as well as relational operations need to be supported throughout the data life cycle. In this thesis, we introduce a tensor-based relational data model (TRM), which enables both tensor- based data analysis and relational manipulations of multidimensional data, and define tensor-relational operations on this model. Then we introduce a tensor-relational data management system, so called, TensorDB. TensorDB is based on TRM, which brings together relational algebraic operations (for data manipulation and integration) and tensor algebraic operations (for data analysis). We develop optimization strategies for tensor-relational operations in both in-memory and in-database TensorDB. The goal of the TRM and TensorDB is to serve as a single environment that supports the entire life cycle of data; that is, data can be manipulated, integrated, processed, and analyzed.

Description
Artificial Intelligence, as the hottest research topic nowadays, is mostly driven by data. There is no doubt that data is the king in the age of AI. However, natural high-quality data is precious and rare. In order to obtain enough and eligible data to support AI tasks, data processing is always required. To be even worse, the data preprocessing tasks are often dull and heavy, which require huge human labors to deal with. Statistics show 70% - 80% of the data scientists' time is spent on data integration process. Among various reasons, schema changes that commonly exist in the data warehouse are one significant obstacle that impedes the automation of the end-to-end data integration process. Traditional data integration applications rely on data processing operators such as join, union, aggregation and so on. Those operations are fragile and can be easily interrupted by schema changes. Whenever schema changes happen, the data integration applications will require human labors to solve the interruptions and downtime. The industries as well as the data scientists need a new mechanism to handle the schema changes in data integration tasks. This work proposes a new direction of data integration applications based on deep learning models. The data integration problem is defined in the scenario of integrating tabular-format data with natural schema changes, using the cell-based data abstraction. In addition, data augmentation and adversarial learning are investigated to boost the model robustness to schema changes. The experiments are tested on two real-world data integration scenarios, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
