Abstract
A method provides for classifying data fields of a dataset. A classifier configured for determining confidence values for a plurality of data classes for the data fields may be applied. Using the confidence values, data class candidates may be identified. Data fields may be determined for which a plurality of data class candidates is identifiable. Using previous user-selected data class assignments, a probability may be determined for the data class candidates that the respective data class candidate is a data class to which the respective data field is to be assigned. The data fields may be classified using the probabilities to select for the data fields a data class from the data class candidates. The dataset may be provided with metadata identifying for the data fields the data classes to which the respective data fields are assigned.
