Milan: Automatic Generation of R2RML Mappings

Milan automatically generates R2RML mappings between a source relational database and a target ontology, using a novel multi-level algorithms. It address real world inter-model semantic gap by resolving naming conflicts, structural and semantic heterogeneity, thus enabling high fidelity mapping generation for realistic databases. Despite the importance of mappings for interoperability across relational databases and ontologies, a labour and expertise-intensive task, the current state of the art has achieved only limited automation. The paper describes an experimental evaluation of Milan with respect to the state of the art systems using the RODI benchmarking tool which shows that Milan outperforms all systems in all categories
