摘要

Data formatting rules to convert data from one form to another form are automatically determined based on a user's edits. A machine learning heuristic is applied to a user's edits to determine a data formatting rule that may be applied to data. For example, a user may make edits that add/remove characters from data, concatenate data, extract data, rename data, and the like. The machine learning heuristic may be automatically triggered in response to an event (e.g. after a predetermined number of edits are made to a same type of data) or manually triggered (e.g. selecting a user interface option). The data formatting rule may be applied to other data and the results of the formatting reviewable by the user. Based on further edits/reviews, the data formatting rule may be updated. The data formatting rules may be stored for later use.
