PARIS: Probabilistic Alignment of Relations, Instances, and Schema

Summary: Jointly aligns instances, relations, and classes; instance- and schema-level alignments mutually reinforce each other. A parameter-free probabilistic approach enabling scalable, high-precision ontology integration on large ontologies (≈90% precision). (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
