Abstract. This paper summarizes the results of the fourth participation of the MaasMatch system in the Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI) com-petition. We describe the performed changes to the MaasMatch system and eval-uate the effect of these changes on the different datasets. 1 Presentation of the system MaasMatch is a ontology mapping system with the initial focus of fully utilizing the information located in the concept names, labels and descriptions in order to produce a mapping between two ontologies [2,4]. This was achieved through the utilization of syntactic similarities and virtual documents, which can also be used as a disambiguation method for the improvement of lexical similarities [3,6]. 1.1 Specific techniques used The 2014 version of MaasMatch exhibits some notable changes compared to the 2013 version [5]. First, the system is now based on a de-centralized configuration system. For each presented mapping problem, the system queries its stored similarity measures whether the current problem is appropriate for that particular measure. Each measure
