Abstract

Schema matching plays a central role in identifying the semantic correspondences across shared-data applications, such as data integration. Due to the increasing size and the widespread use of XML schemas and different kinds of ontologies, it becomes toughly challenging to cope with large-scale schema matching. Clustering-based matching is a great step towards more significant reduction of the search space and thus improved efficiency. However, methods used to identify similar clusters depend on literally matching terms. To improve this situation, in this paper, a new approach is proposed which uses Latent Semantic Indexing that allows retrieving the conceptual meaning between clusters. The experimental evaluations show encourage results towards building efficient large-scale matching approaches.
