  9. Schema Matching for HTML Tables with Unknown Structure Cui Tao

  10. Table-Schema Matching(Basic Idea) • Many Tables on the Web • Ontology-Based Extraction • Works well for unstructured or semistructured data • What about structured data – tables? • Method • Form attribute-value pairs • Do extraction • Infer mappings from extraction patterns

  11. Problem: Different Schemas Target Database Schema {Car, Year, Make, Model, Mileage, Price, PhoneNr}, {PhoneNr, Extension}, {Car, Feature} Different Source Table Schemas • {Run #, Yr, Make, Model, Tran, Color, Dr} • {Make, Model, Year, Colour, Price, Auto, Air Cond., AM/FM, CD} • {Vehicle, Distance, Price, Mileage} • {Year, Make, Model, Trim, Invoice/Retail, Engine, Fuel Economy}

  12. Problem: Attribute is Value

  13. ? ? Problem: Attribute-Value is Value

  14. Problem: Value is not Value

  15. `` `` `` Problem: Implied Values

  16. Problem: Missing Attributes

  17. Problem: Compound Attributes

  18. Problem: Factored Values

  19. Problem: Split Values

  20. Problem: Merged Values

  21. Problem: Values not of Interest

  22. Table extending over several pages Single-Column Table (formatted as list) Problem: Information Behind Links

  23. Solution • Form attribute-value pairs (adjust if necessary) • Do extraction • Infer mappings from extraction patterns

  24. ACURA ACURA Legend Unnest: μ(Model, Year, Colour, Price, Auto, Air Cond, AM/FM, CD)*μ(Year, Colour, Price, Auto, Air Cond, AM/FM, CD)*Table Solution: Remove Internal Factoring Discover Nesting: Make, (Model, (Year, Colour, Price, Auto, Air Cond, AM/FM, CD)*)*

Joining to form records is trivial because we have OIDs for table rows (e.g. for each Car). Solution: Infer Mappings ACURA ACURA Legend {Car, Year, Make, Model, Mileage, Price, PhoneNr}, {PhoneNr, Extension}, {Car, Feature}

  33. Experiment • Tables from 60 sites • 10 “training” tables • 50 test tables • 357 mappings (from all 60 sites) • 172 direct mappings (same attribute and meaning) • 185 indirect mappings (29 attribute synonyms, 5 “Yes/No” columns, 68 unions over columns for Feature, 19 factored values, and 89 columns of merged values that needed to be split)

  34. Results • 10 “training” tables • 100% of the 57 mappings (no false mappings) • 94.6% of the values in linked pages (5.4% false declarations) • 50 test tables • 94.7% of the 300 mappings (no false mappings) • On the bases of sampling 3,000 values in linked pages, we obtained 97% recall and 86% precision • 16 missed mappings • 4 partial (not all unions included) • 6 non-U.S. car-ads (unrecognized makes and models) • 2 U.S. unrecognized makes and models • 3 prices (missing $ or found MSRP instead) • 1 mileage (mileages less than 1,000)

  35. Direct Schema Matching Li Xu

  36. Attribute Matchingfor Populated Schemas • Central Idea: Exploit All Data & Metadata • Matching Possibilities (Facets) • Attribute Names • Data-Value Characteristics • Expected Data Values • Data-Dictionary Information • Structural Properties

  37. Approach • Target Schema T • Source Schema S • Framework • Individual Facet Matching • Combining Facets • Best-First Match Iteration

  38. Year Year Year Year Make Make Make Feature Make has has has has has 0:1 0:1 0:1 0:1 0:* 0:1 0:1 Car Cost Model Model Model Car Model has has 0:1 has 0:1 has Phone Mileage Miles Example Car Car Style 0:1 has 0:* 0:1 0:1 has has has Mileage Miles Cost Target Schema T Source Schema S

  39. Individual Facet Matching • Attribute Names • Data-Value Characteristics • Expected Data Values

  40. Attribute Names • Target and Source Attributes • T : A • S : B • WordNet • C4.5 Decision Tree: feature selection, trained on schemas in DB books • f0: same word • f1: synonym • f2: sum of distances to a common hypernym root • f3: number of different common hypernym roots • f4: sum of the number of senses of A and B

  41. The number of different common hypernym roots of A and B The sum of the number of senses of A and B The sum of distances of A and B to a common hypernym WordNet Rule

  42. Confidence Measures

  43. Data-Value Characteristics • C4.5 Decision Tree • Features • Numeric data (Mean, variation, standard deviation, …) • Alphanumeric data (String length, numeric ratio, space ratio)

  44. Confidence Measures

  45. Expected Data Values • Target Schema T and Source Schema S • Regular expression recognizer for attribute A in T • Data instances for attribute B in S • Hit Ratio = N'/N for (A, B) match • N' : number of B data instances recognized by the regular expressions of A • N: number of B data instances

  46. Confidence Measures

  49. Experimental Results • This schema, plus 6 other schemas • 32 matched attributes • 376 unmatched attributes • Measures • Recall: 100% • Precision: 94% • F Measure: 97% • False Positives • “Feature” ---”Color” • “Feature” ---”Body Type”
