Effect of thesaurus size on schema matching quality

作者：

Highlights：

• We study the effect of thesaurus size on the outcome of schema matching.

• We utilize thesaurus to perform the mapping based on textual analysis.

• An enhanced search algorithm for applying thesaurus on texts was used.

• A new method of vector similarity was proposed and compared with cosine similarity.

• An increment in the average of similarity with distinctive values when using different thesauri was recorded.
