The method does not require a training set of instances linked across databases and it is capable of dealing with both fixed-and variable-length field columns. We propose an iterative algorithm that deduces the correct sequence of concatenations of column substrings in order to translate from one database to another. We introduce the algorithm along with examples on common database data values and examine its performance on real-world and synthetic datasets.</div> <!--break--></div></div></div><div class="form-item form-type-item"> <label>Language </label> Undefined </div> <div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Tags:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/taxonomy/term/1" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Presentation</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/taxonomy/term/8" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">database</a></div><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/taxonomy/term/2" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Conference</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/taxonomy/term/35" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Database Integration</a></div><div class="field-item even" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/taxonomy/term/36" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Korea</a></div><div class="field-item odd" rel="dc:subject"><a href="/taxonomy/term/37" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Schema Integration</a></div></div></div> Wed, 16 Aug 2006 03:32:43 +0000 warren 27 at https://www.dbdump.org https://www.dbdump.org/news/2006/08/paper-at-vldb-2006-multi-column-substring-matching-for-database-schema-translation.html#comments
