Magellan: Toward Building Entity Matching Management Systems over Data Science Stacks

Summary: Magellan proposes an EM management system that extends beyond algorithms to end-to-end tooling on Python data-science stacks. It offers a step-by-step guide, full EM pipeline tooling, and an interactive scripting env for rapid experiments, evaluated with 44 users. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
