摘要
In this paper, we introduce a new schema matching approach. The proposed approach is applicable for matching a database of trees with specific applications to XML databases. Our approach is based on the representation of two XML schemas as sequences of labels and numbers by Prufer's method that constructs a one-to-one correspondence between schema trees and sequences. We benefit from label sequences to determine terminological semantic similarities between two schemas concepts. We then develop a novel structural algorithm which is based on number sequences and is used to prune many false positive candidates. Finally, we combine the two similarity measures to obtain the total similarity between schemas' elements. Experimental results demonstrate the performance benefits of our proposed approach.
