Evaluation of Similarity Measures for Ontology Mapping

This paper presents an analysis of similarity measures for identifying ontology mapping. Using discriminant analysis, we investigated forty-eight similarity measures such as string matching and knowledge based similarities that have been used in previous systems. As a result, we extracted twenty-two effective similarity measures for identifying ontology mapping out of forty-eight possible similarity measures. The extracted measures vary widely in the type in similarity.
