Deep Entity Matching with Pre-Trained Language Models

Summary: Ditto uses pre-trained transformers as sequence-pair classifiers for entity matching, beating SOTA by up to 29% F1. Adds domain highlighting, input-length summarization, and hard-example augmentation to boost with fewer labels; on 789k/412k records, Ditto reaches 96.5% F1.
