چکیده

Methods for name matching, an important component to support downstream tasks such as entity linking and entity clustering, have focused on alphabetic languages, primarily English. In contrast, logogram languages such as Chinese remain untested. We evaluate methods for name matching in Chinese, including both string matching and learning approaches. Our approach, based on new representations for Chinese, improves both name matching and a downstream entity clustering task.

An Improved Semantic Schema Matching Approach

Schema matching is a critical step in many applications, such as data warehouse loading, Online Analytical Process (OLAP), Data mining, semantic web [2] and schema integration. This task is defined for finding the semantic correspondences between elements of two schemas. Recently, schema matching has found considerable interest in both research and practice. In this paper, we present a new impr...

An Empirical Comparison of Approaches to Approximate String Matching in Private Record Linkage

Due to the frequency of spelling and typographical errors in practical applications, record linkage algorithms have to use string similarity functions. In many legal contexts, identifiers such as names have to be encrypted before a record linkage can be attempted. Therefore, algorithms for computing string similarity functions with encrypted identifiers are essential for approximating string ma...

Relationship between Coefficients of Characteristic Polynomial and Matching Polynomial of Regular Graphs and its Applications

ABSTRACT. Suppose G is a graph, A(G) its adjacency matrix and f(G, x)=x^n+a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+... is the characteristic polynomial of G. The matching polynomial of G is defined as M(G, x) = x^n-m(G,1)x^(n-2) + ... where m(G,k) is the number of k-matchings in G. In this paper, we determine the relationship between 2k-th coefficient of characteristic polynomial, a_(2k), and k-th coefficient of matchin...
