Meaningful Labeling of Integrated Query Interfaces

Summary: Automatically builds a unified query interface over multiple domain Web databases. It defines properties for consistent labeling, proposes algorithms to label attributes, validates on seven domains, and uncovers inference rules between labels. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
