Abstract
Examples are described herein that relate to determining a level of relatedness between datasets. An approximation can be made of whether an entry in a first dataset appears in a same row as an entry in a second dataset. The approximation can be made by grouping entries in the second dataset together and determining an occurrence that an entry occurs in a same row as any of the entries in a grouping of entries. A test of independence between datasets can be made based at least on the occurrence values. Datasets can be ranked according to level of independence and presented to a user as candidates to join with a dataset. Occurrence values or rankings can be precomputed and available for use so that join candidates can be presented with a little amount of perceived delay to a user. A user interface can present join candidates for a dataset and allow the user the select datasets for joining. Joining of first and second datasets can supplement entries in both of the datasets and create a third dataset.
