Opis

This book presents a method for database schemamatching, the problem of identifying elements of twogiven schemas that correspond to each other. Schemamatching is useful in e-commerce exchanges, in dataintegration/warehousing, and in Semantic Webapplications. It first presents two corpus-basedmethods: one method is for determining the semanticsimilarity of two target words and the other is forautomatic word segmentation. Then it presents aname-based element-level database schema matchingmethod that exploits both the semantic similarity andthe word segmentation methods.
