Schema Clustering and Retrieval for Multi-domain Pay-As-You-Go Data Integration Systems

Summary: Presents unsupervised domain clustering for pay-as-you-go data integration using only attribute names and probabilistic domain assignment. Also proposes a domain-aware classifier mapping keyword queries to relevant domains; experiments validate. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
