Abstract: Schema matching is a critical step in data inte-gration systems. Most recent schema matching systems require a manual double-check of the matching results to add missed matches and remove incorrect matches. Manual correction is labor-intensive and time-consuming, however without it the results accuracy is significantly lower. In this paper, we present xMatcher, an approach to automatically match XML schemas. Given two schemas S1 and S2, xMatcher identifies semantically similar schema elements between S1 and S2. To obtain correct matches, xMatcher first transforms S1 and S2 into sets of words; then, it uses a context-based measure to identify the meanings of words in their contexts; next, it captures semantic relatedness between sets of words in different schemas; finally, it uses WordNet information to calculate the similarity values between semantically related sets and matches the pairs of sets whose similarity values are greater than or equal to 0.8. The results show that xMatcher provides superior matching accuracy compared to the state of the art matching systems. Overall, our proposal can be a stepping stone towards decreasing human assistance and overcoming the weaknesses of current matching initiatives in terms of matching accuracy.
