Adding a Source Indicator Feature for Inconsistent Data
One way to address inconsistent data from multiple sources is to add a feature indicating the source, such as the city in a housing-price example. Once the input specifies the city, the target value becomes unambiguous, although this approach is not frequently used in practice in the cited discussion.
