Structures, Semantics and Statistics

Summary: Statistics over large sets of data schemas reveal semantic hints and enable mappings across structures for data integration. The approach generalizes to search in complex structure spaces and enables on-the-fly, next-generation data integration. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
