Abstract
A system standardizes values that occur in large datasets before the dataset is analyzed. The system identifies values in a dataset that are similar to each other and associates those values with each other to form groups. The system determines a canonical value for each group of associated values. Within each group, the system replaces values that have been associated with each other with the canonical value for the group. As a result, the dataset is transformed into a dataset that has standardized values, and the standardized dataset is provided as input for analysis by a data analysis system. By standardizing the dataset in this manner, the data analysis system can process a larger portion of the dataset.
