Abstract
A database user may be confronted with a relation that contains errors. These errors may result from transmission through a noisy channel, or they may have been added deliberately in order to hide or spoil information. Error-robust functional dependencies provide dependencies that still hold in the case of errors. The paper investigates the finite axiomatisation of such dependencies. It presents a sound and complete system of axioms and rules for the implication of error-robust dependencies including disjunctions.
