Data in the real world is often dirty. Inconsistency is an important kind of dirty data. Before repairing inconsistency, we need to detect them first. The time complexities of current inconsistency detection algorithms are super-linear to the size of data and not suitable for big data. For inconsistency detection for big data, we develop an algorithm that detects inconsistency within one-pass scan of the data according to both the functional dependency (FD) and the conditional functional dependency (CFD). We compare our detection algorithm with existing approaches experimentally. Experimental results on real datasets show that our approach could detect inconsistency effectively and efficiently.
