Abstract

Automatically mapping unlabeled input data onto a target schema via semantic type detection is described. The input data includes data elements that are structured as 2D table rows and columns forming cells. Each data element is included in a cell. The target schema includes a set of fields. Schema mapping includes mapping each column to one or more fields. More particularly, the fields are clustered into field clusters, where each field cluster includes one or more of the fields. Each column is automatically mapped to one of the field clusters of the set of field clusters. The mapping between schema fields and data columns is automatically performed based on appropriate pairings of the detected semantic types, where the semantic types are encoded in vector representations of the fields, the field clusters, and the data elements.
