Abstract. StringsAuto and MapSSS are two closely related ontology alignment systems. The StringsAuto matcher seeks to explore the limits of a syntactic-only approach to alignment. The MapSSS system then expands on this work by embedding the syntactic matching of StringsAuto within a more complete alignment system that also makes use of semantic and structural information. In this paper we describe the basic operation of the two systems and discuss their performance in the OAEI 2013 evaluation. 1 Presentation of the system 1.1 State, purpose, general statement The vast majority of ontology alignment systems use some form of string similarity metric. Our overall goal with StringsAuto and MapSSS is to explore the importance of the choice of a particular string metric. StringsAuto consists only of string metrics, while MapSSS uses strategically chosen string metrics within the context of a more fully-featured alignment system. In [1] we analyzed the performance of eleven string similarity metrics (TF-IDF,
