Information quality(InfoQ) is the potential of adata setto achieve a specific (scientific or practical) goal using a givenempirical analysis method. Formally, the definition isInfoQ = U(X,f|g)where X is the data, f the analysis method, g the goal and U the utility function. InfoQ is different fromdata qualityandanalys...
