Ontology matching
is a key interoperability enabler for the Semantic Web, as well as a useful tactic in some
classical data integration tasks dealing with the semantic heterogeneity problem. It takes the ontologies as
input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of correspondences between the semantically
related entities of those ontologies. These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology
merging, data translation, query answering or navigation on the web of data. Thus, matching ontologies
enables the knowledge and data expressed in the matched ontologies to interoperate.
The workshop has three goals:
-
To bring together leaders from academia, industry and user institutions to assess how academic
advances are addressing real-world requirements. The workshop will strive to improve academic
awareness of industrial and final user needs, and therefore direct research towards those needs.
Simultaneously, the workshop will serve to inform industry and user representatives about existing
research efforts that may meet their requirements. The workshop will also investigate how the
ontology matching technology is going to evolve.
-
To conduct an extensive and rigorous evaluation of ontology matching approaches through the
OAEI
(Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative)
2011 campaign.
The particular focus of this year's OAEI
campaign is on real-world specific matching tasks involving, e.g., open linked data and biomedical ontologies.
Therefore, the ontology matching evaluation initiative
itself will provide a solid ground for discussion of how well the current approaches are meeting
business needs.
-
To examine similarities and differences from database schema matching, which has received decades
of attention but is just beginning to transition to mainstream tools.

Audience:
The workshop encourages participation from academia, industry and user institutions with the emphasis on
theoretical and practical aspects of ontology matching. On the one side, we expect representatives from
industry and user organizations to present business cases and their requirements for ontology matching.
On the other side, we expect academic participants to present their approaches vis-a-vis those
requirements. The workshop provides an informal setting for researchers and practitioners from different
related initiatives to meet and benefit from each other's work and requirements.
This year, in sync with the main conference, we encourage submissions specifically devoted to: (i) repeatable
evaluations of the approaches proposed (not necessarily within OAEI) and (ii) application of the matching
technology in real-life scenarios and assessment of its usefulness to the final users.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Business and use cases for matching (e.g., open government data);
- Requirements to matching from specific domains;
- Application of matching techniques in real-world scenarios;
- Formal foundations and frameworks for matching;
- Matching patterns;
- Instance matching and data interlinking;
- Large-scale matching evaluation;
- Performance of matching techniques;
- Matcher selection and self-configuration;
- User involvement (including both technical and organizational aspects);
- Explanations in matching;
- Social and collaborative matching;
- Alignment management;
- Reasoning with alignments;
- Matching for traditional applications (e.g., information integration);
- Matching for dynamic applications (e.g., search, web-services).
