AMC - A framework for modelling and comparing matching systems as matching processes
Eric Peukert, Julian Eberius, Erhard Rahm · 2011
We present the Auto Mapping Core (AMC), a new framework that supports fast construction and tuning of schema matching approaches for specific domains such as ontology alignment, model matching or database-schema matching. Distinctive features of our framework are new visualisation techniques for modelling matching processes, stepwise tuning of parameters, intermediate result analysis and performance-oriented rewrites. Furthermore, existing matchers can be plugged into the framework to comparatively evaluate them in a common environment. This allows deeper analysis of behaviour and shortcomings in existing complex matching systems.
