Project description
Schema Matching by XGboost and Sentence-Transformers
Using XGboost to perform schema matching task on tables. Support multi-language column names and instances matching and can be used without column names. Both csv and json file type are supported.
What is schema matching?
Schema matching is the problem of finding potential associations between elements (most often attributes or relations) of two schemas. source
Dependencies
- numpy==1.19.5
- pandas==1.1.5
- nltk==3.6.5
- python-dateutil==2.8.2
- sentence-transformers==2.1.0
- xgboost==1.5.2
- strsimpy==0.2.1
Data
See Data format in Training Data and Test Data folders. You need to put mapping.txt, Table1.csv and Table2.csv in new folders under Training Data. For Test Data, mapping.txt is not needed.
Output
- similarity_matrix_label.csv: Labels(0,1) for each column pairs.
- similarity_matrix_value.csv: Average of raw values computed by all the xgboost models.
Usage
1.Construct features
python relation_features.py
2.Train xgboost models
python train.py
3.Calculate similarity matrix (inference)
Example:
python cal_column_similarity.py -p Test\ Data/self -m /model/2022-04-12-12-06-32 -s one-to-one
python cal_column_similarity.py -p Test\ Data/authors -m /model/2022-04-12-12-06-32-11 -t 0.9
Parameters:
- -p: Path to test data folder, must contain "Table1.csv" and "Table2.csv" or "Table1.json" and "Table2.json".
- -m: Path to trained model folder, which must contain at least one pair of ".model" file and ".threshold" file.
- -t: Threshold, you can use this parameter to specify threshold value, suggest 0.9 for easy matching(column name very similar). Default value is calculated from training data, which is around 0.15-0.2. This value is used for difficult matching(column name masked or very different).
- -s: Strategy, there are two options: "one-to-one" and "one-to-many". "one-to-one" means that one column can only be matched to one column. "one-to-many" means that there is no restrictions. Default is "one-to-many".

- tsm_cosine: Cosine similarity of column names computed by sentence-transformers using "paraphrase-multilingual-mpnet-base-v2". Support multi-language column names matching.
- instance_similarity:cosine: Select 20 instances each string column and compute its mean embedding using sentence-transformers. Cosine similarity is computed by each pairs.
