Book The Four Generations of Entity Resolution

Download or read book The Four Generations of Entity Resolution written by George Papadakis and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book organizes entity resolution (ER) into four generations based on the challenges posed by “the four Vs,” Veracity, Volume, Variety, and Velocity. Entity resolution lies at the core of data integration and cleaning and, thus, a bulk of the research examines ways for improving its effectiveness and time efficiency. For each generation, we outline the corresponding ER workflow, discuss the state-of-the-art methods per workflow step, and present current research directions. The discussion of these methods takes into account a historical perspective, explaining the evolution of the methods over time along with their similarities and differences. The lecture also discusses the available ER tools and benchmark datasets that allow expert as well as novice users to make use of the available solutions. The initial ER methods primarily target Veracity in the context of structured (relational) data that are described by a schema of well-known quality and meaning. To achieve high effectiveness, they leverage schema, expert, and/or external knowledge. Part of these methods are extended to address Volume, processing large datasets through multi-core or massive parallelization approaches, such as the MapReduce paradigm. However, these early schema-based approaches are inapplicable to Web Data, which abound in voluminous, noisy, semi-structured, and highly heterogeneous information. To address the additional challenge of Variety, recent works on ER adopt a novel, loosely schema-aware functionality that emphasizes scalability and robustness to noise. Another line of present research focuses on the additional challenge of Velocity, aiming to process data collections of a continuously increasing volume. The latest works, though, take advantage of the significant breakthroughs in Deep Learning and Crowdsourcing, incorporating external knowledge to enhance the existing words to a significant extent.

Download or read book Data Matching written by Peter Christen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-07-04 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data matching (also known as record or data linkage, entity resolution, object identification, or field matching) is the task of identifying, matching and merging records that correspond to the same entities from several databases or even within one database. Based on research in various domains including applied statistics, health informatics, data mining, machine learning, artificial intelligence, database management, and digital libraries, significant advances have been achieved over the last decade in all aspects of the data matching process, especially on how to improve the accuracy of data matching, and its scalability to large databases. Peter Christen’s book is divided into three parts: Part I, “Overview”, introduces the subject by presenting several sample applications and their special challenges, as well as a general overview of a generic data matching process. Part II, “Steps of the Data Matching Process”, then details its main steps like pre-processing, indexing, field and record comparison, classification, and quality evaluation. Lastly, part III, “Further Topics”, deals with specific aspects like privacy, real-time matching, or matching unstructured data. Finally, it briefly describes the main features of many research and open source systems available today. By providing the reader with a broad range of data matching concepts and techniques and touching on all aspects of the data matching process, this book helps researchers as well as students specializing in data quality or data matching aspects to familiarize themselves with recent research advances and to identify open research challenges in the area of data matching. To this end, each chapter of the book includes a final section that provides pointers to further background and research material. Practitioners will better understand the current state of the art in data matching as well as the internal workings and limitations of current systems. Especially, they will learn that it is often not feasible to simply implement an existing off-the-shelf data matching system without substantial adaption and customization. Such practical considerations are discussed for each of the major steps in the data matching process.

Book Modern Algorithms of Cluster Analysis

Download or read book Modern Algorithms of Cluster Analysis written by Slawomir Wierzchoń and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-29 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the reader with a basic understanding of the formal concepts of the cluster, clustering, partition, cluster analysis etc. The book explains feature-based, graph-based and spectral clustering methods and discusses their formal similarities and differences. Understanding the related formal concepts is particularly vital in the epoch of Big Data; due to the volume and characteristics of the data, it is no longer feasible to predominantly rely on merely viewing the data when facing a clustering problem. Usually clustering involves choosing similar objects and grouping them together. To facilitate the choice of similarity measures for complex and big data, various measures of object similarity, based on quantitative (like numerical measurement results) and qualitative features (like text), as well as combinations of the two, are described, as well as graph-based similarity measures for (hyper) linked objects and measures for multilayered graphs. Numerous variants demonstrating how such similarity measures can be exploited when defining clustering cost functions are also presented. In addition, the book provides an overview of approaches to handling large collections of objects in a reasonable time. In particular, it addresses grid-based methods, sampling methods, parallelization via Map-Reduce, usage of tree-structures, random projections and various heuristic approaches, especially those used for community detection.

Book Entity Resolution in the Web of Data

Download or read book Entity Resolution in the Web of Data written by Vassilis Christophides and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, several knowledge bases have been built to enable large-scale knowledge sharing, but also an entity-centric Web search, mixing both structured data and text querying. These knowledge bases offer machine-readable descriptions of real-world entities, e.g., persons, places, published on the Web as Linked Data. However, due to the different information extraction tools and curation policies employed by knowledge bases, multiple, complementary and sometimes conflicting descriptions of the same real-world entities may be provided. Entity resolution aims to identify different descriptions that refer to the same entity appearing either within or across knowledge bases. The objective of this book is to present the new entity resolution challenges stemming from the openness of the Web of data in describing entities by an unbounded number of knowledge bases, the semantic and structural diversity of the descriptions provided across domains even for the same real-world entities, as well as the autonomy of knowledge bases in terms of adopted processes for creating and curating entity descriptions. The scale, diversity, and graph structuring of entity descriptions in the Web of data essentially challenge how two descriptions can be effectively compared for similarity, but also how resolution algorithms can efficiently avoid examining pairwise all descriptions. The book covers a wide spectrum of entity resolution issues at the Web scale, including basic concepts and data structures, main resolution tasks and workflows, as well as state-of-the-art algorithmic techniques and experimental trade-offs.

Book THE ART OF INTELLIGENT MACHINES UNLEASHING THE POWER OF MACHINE LEARNING

Download or read book THE ART OF INTELLIGENT MACHINES UNLEASHING THE POWER OF MACHINE LEARNING written by Mr. Om Prakash Singh and published by Xoffencerpublication. This book was released on 2023-08-14 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intelligent machines, also known as artificial intelligence (AI) systems, are a fascinating area of study and development that integrates computer science, mathematics, and cognitive science to create machines that can simulate human-like intellect and conduct. This field of study and development aims to produce machines that can create intelligent machines that can simulate human-like intelligence and behavior. These computers are programmed to perceive, learn, reason, and make judgments in a manner that is either comparable to or superior to the cognitive powers of humans. Machine learning is a subsection of artificial intelligence that focuses on the development of algorithms and models that enable computers to learn from and make predictions or judgments based on data. Intelligent machines are constructed on top of this foundation, which is the basis of machine learning. Intelligent machines are able to analyze huge amounts of data, recognize patterns in that data, and make decisions based on that analysis through the use of machine learning techniques such as neural networks, decision trees, and reinforcement learning. The capacity to learn new things and advance themselves over time is one of the most distinguishing features of intelligent machines. They are able to gain knowledge from their experiences and modify either their behavior or their models in order to get better results. This skill is frequently referred regarded as "artificial intelligence" since these machines can demonstrate features that we generally associate with human intellect, such as problem-solving, the ability to grasp plain language, and visual perception. The applications for intelligent machines are quite diverse and can be found in a variety of domains. They are used in a variety of industries, including the healthcare sector, the financial sector, the transportation sector, and the manufacturing sector, to automate processes, improve decision-making, and increase efficiency. In the field of medicine, for instance, intelligent robots can be of assistance in the process of disease diagnosis, the analysis of medical imaging, and the development of individualized treatment regimens.
