LINDA: distributed web-of-data-scale entity matching

Published: 29 October 2012 Publication History

Abstract

Linked Data has emerged as a powerful way of interconnecting structured data on the Web. However, the cross-linkage between Linked Data sources is not as extensive as one would hope for. In this paper, we formalize the task of automatically creating "sameAs" links across data sources in a globally consistent manner. Our algorithm, presented in a multi-core as well as a distributed version, achieves this link generation by accounting for joint evidence of a match. Experiments confirm that our system scales beyond 100 million entities and delivers highly accurate results despite the vast heterogeneity and daunting scale.
