BEACON: Budget-Aware Entity Matching Across Domains

Summary: BEACON tackles low-resource cross-domain entity matching when target labels are scarce but other domains are labeled. Its distribution- and budget-aware selection of out-of-domain pairs via embedding representations improves EM across varying labeling budgets. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 26 2026)
