Data quality-based confidence computations for KPIs derived from time-series data

Abstract:

A system, computer program product, and method are presented for providing confidence values for replacement data for data that has issues indicative of errors, where the data issues, the replacement data, and confidence values are related to one or more KPIs. The method includes identifying one or more potentially erroneous data instances and determining one or more predicted replacement values for the potentially erroneous data instances. The method further includes determining a confidence value for each predicted replacement value and resolving the one or more potentially erroneous data instances with one predicted replacement value of the one or more predicted replacement values. The method also includes generating an explanatory basis for the resolution of the one or more potentially erroneous data instances.
