Our work "Maximal Format-Free Data Repair" has been accepted for publication at ASE 2026. This is a joint work by Jack Luo, Xi Wu, Hong Jin Kang, Alan Fekete, and Rahul Gopinath (me). It shows how to repair syntactically rich text data with minimal effort even when the syntax specification is unavailable. It combines passive and active blackbox grammar inference to achieve this feat.
