Zusammenfassung

Data engineering is an integral part of any data science and ML process. It consists of several subtasks that are performed to improve data quality and to transform data into a target format suitable for analysis. The quality and correctness of the data engineering steps is therefore important to ensure the quality of the overall process. In machine learning processes requirements such as fairness and explainability are essential. The answers to these must also be provided by the data engineering subtasks. In this article, we will show how these can be achieved by logging, monitoring and controlling the data changes in order to evaluate their correctness. However, since data preprocessing algorithms are part of any machine learning pipeline, they must obviously also guarantee that they do not produce data biases. In this article we will briefly introduce three classes of methods for measuring data changes in data engineering and present which research questions still remain unanswered in this area.
