With the emerging concept of model transformation, information can be extracted from one or more source models to produce the target models. The conversion of these models can be done automatically with specific transformation languages. This conversion requires mapping between both models with the help of dynamic hash tables. Hash tables store reference links between the elements of the source...

In this study, the process to synthesize a human face based on the information of words is defined as a mapping from a word space, which is composed of the words expressing dimensions and shape of facial elements, into a physical model space where physical shape of the facial elements are formed. By introducing a concept of mapping, the use of whole words existing in the word space makes it pos...

BACKGROUND Systematic study of clinical phenotypes is important for a better understanding of the genetic basis of human diseases and more effective gene-based disease management. A key aspect in facilitating such studies requires standardized representation of the phenotype data using common data elements (CDEs) and controlled biomedical vocabularies. In this study, the authors analyzed how a ...

In this paper, we propose an alternative mapping strategy to mine the structural similarity and an advanced mapping rule from the algorithm. Objectrelational mapping technique is used for extracting advanced storage design schema for microarray data and structural similarity of elements is evaluated for efficient storage construction. The mapping strategy reduced the number of relational tables...

Due to various considerations, software vendors often translate their applications from one programming language to another, either manually or with the support of translation tools. Both these scenarios require translation of many call sites of API elements (i.e., classes, methods, and fields of API libraries). API mapping relations, either acquired by experienced programmers or already incorp...

Given two classifications, or lightweight ontologies, we compute the minimal mapping, namely the subset of all possible correspondences, called mapping elements, between them such that i) all the others can be computed from them in time linear in the size of the input ontologies, and ii) none of them can be dropped without losing property i). In this paper we provide a formal definition of mini...
