Large-scale Interactive Ontology Matching: Algorithms and Implementation

Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz, Bernardo Cuenca Grau, Yujiao Zhou, Ian Horrocks

Abstract: In this paper we present the ontology matching system LogMap 2, a much improved version of its predecessor LogMap. LogMap 2 supports user interaction during the matching process, which is essential for use cases requiring very accurate mappings. Interactivity, however, imposes very strict scalability requirements; we are able to satisfy these requirements by providing real-time user response even for large-scale ontologies. Finally, LogMap 2 implements scalable reasoning and diagnosis algorithms, which minimise any logical inconsistencies introduced by the matching process.
