WSSM: A WordNet-Based Web Services Similarity Mining Mechanism
Xianyang Qu, Hailong Sun, Xiang Li, Xudong Liu, Wei Yen Lin · 2009
One of the challenging issues in web service research is to efficiently find appropriate services from large volumes of existing services. In this paper, we propose a WordNet-based Web service similarity mining mechanism called WSSM to address this issue. WSSM can effectively cluster services into different categories so as to reduce the searching space. As a result, it improves service discovery efficiency greatly. Finally, based on the Web services collected from online service repositories, we conduct extensive experiments to study the performance of our implementation.
