Tuning Schema Matching Software using Synthetic Scenarios

Summary: eTuner automatically tunes multi-component schema matchers by matching a target schema against synthetic schemas with known mappings, replacing costly domain expertise. Sequential component-level search and optional user guidance improve four systems’ real-world accuracy at negligible user cost. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
