  • Object Matching for Data Integration: A Profile-Based Approach, A. Doan, Y. Lu, Y. Lee, and J. Han. IEEE Intelligent Systems, Special Issue on Information Integration on the Web, 2003.
  • Semi-automated discovery of matches between schemas, ontologies and data fragments of disparate data sources, R. Dhamankar. Masters Thesis, Department of Computer Science, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, 2004.

Data Format

This data set consists of two data sources and a mapping file between sources.

• The first data source lists highly cites authors with rank and name.
• The second data source contains suggested homepages for authors. We manually converted each homepage into a XML file by extracting homepage information such as name, name and rank of current university, position, and year that the person obtained his or her PhD.
