Glue

Identifies Mappings between websites

Uses Machine Learning

Uses Common Sense Knowledge

Domain Constraints

Motivation

Data comes from Different Ontologies Answers come from multiple web

pages Manual:

very tedious, error prone, not very scalable

Outline

Overview of GLUE GLUE Architecture Case Studies CGLUE Case Studies Conclusion Assessment

Overview• Assumes 2 Ontologies• 1-1 Matching• Similarity between two Concepts

• Computing Joint Distribution• P(A,B), P(A, ~B), P(~A,B), P(~A,~B)

• Machine Learning• Multistrategy Learning• Exploiting Domain Constraints• Data Instances

Domain-Independent General Knowledge

Domain-Dependent Interaction between two nodes

Model each as a feature f()

Domain Independent

Relaxation Labeler

Searches for best mapping given constraints

Labels are influenced by it “neighborhood”

Performs local optimization

Local Optimization

1. Assigns initial labels 2. Performs Optimization 3. Uses a formula to change a label 4. Repeat 2-3

Local Optimization

Node in taxonomy O1 Label in taxonomy O2 Everything we know

Other label assignments to all Nodes besides X

Improvements

Insufficient Training Data Local Optimization Additional Base Learners Ambiguous Best Match

CGLUE

CGLUE

Beam Search Uses structure and data No relaxation labeling (no
