A Model for Complex Tree Integration Tasks

A Method for Complex Hierarchical Data Integration

“…It is also possible to merge all of these criteria into general completeness based on expert-given parameters (different for each problem). These measures were proposed earlier in Maleszka and Nguyen (2011).…”

“…In this section some basic structural criteria measures are defined based on criteria used for XML integration and theoretically defined criteria used for general integration, and a short study of human expectations toward integration will be presented. Some of the measures presented in this section were originally presented in Maleszka and Nguyen (2011); here we extend the definitions with some additional information.…”

“…A complex tree is capable of representing different hierarchical structures (XML, its various schemas, n-trees, some ontologies, etc.). We present a general definition, which is refined from Maleszka and Nguyen (2011), the distinction between representing a schema and an instance using the complex tree, and a definition of an integration task. Definition 1.…”

“…This criterion becomes more important as the number of inputs grows, but here it is presented for the minimal set of two inputs. The following two measures of optimality are inspired from Nguyen (2002) and were first defined for this task in Maleszka and Nguyen (2011).…”

“…This criterion and its measure are important, becaue they allow for more condensed results, making the results clearer. This measure for precision criterion was first defined in Maleszka and Nguyen (2011).…”
