Automatic composition of services through semantic attribute matching

A method of automatically matching schemas begins by extracting schemas from sources and targets. Then, source and target attributes are extracted from the schemas. Each source schema will have multiple source attributes and each target schema will also have multiple target attributes. The source attributes and the target attributes are presented as nodes in a bipartite graph. This bipartite graph has edges between nodes that are related to each other. A plurality of similarity scores are defined between each set of related nodes. Each of the similarity scores is based on a different context-specific cue of the attributes that the nodes represent. These context-specific cues can comprise lexical name, semantic name, type, structure, functional mappings, etc. An overall weight is computed for each edge in the bipartite graph by combining the similarity scores of each set of nodes that form an edge. In addition, an optimal matching of the schemas is assembled, so as to indicate the level of similarity between each of the source and target schemas. The optimal matching selects pairs of nodes between source and target schemas that maximizes the number of nodes matched as well as the overall score of match for the nodes selected.

Structured method for schema matching using multiple levels of ontologies

A structured method of matching schemas that uses multiple levels of ontologies is disclosed. The method maps functions of a target system to a process ontology and maps functions of a source system to the process ontology to produce a first mapping of target functions and source functions using the process ontology. The method identifies target function parameters upon which the target functions operate and identifies source function parameters upon which the source functions operate. Then, the method maps the target function parameters to a concept ontology and maps the source function parameters to the concept ontology to produce a second mapping of the target function parameters and the source function parameters using the concept ontology. This second mapping is enhanced by mapping the target function parameters to a data-type ontology and mapping the source function parameters to the data-type ontology. This produces an enhanced second mapping of the target function parameters and the source function parameters using the data-type ontology. This enhanced second mapping can be the resultant output to be used in subsequent processing.

A portable digital audio device is capable of playing a number of different data file types, such as music data files, speech data files, video data files, and the like. Different CODECs are generally used for different data types. The system determines the data file type and selects the appropriate CODEC based on the reported data file type. In addition, the reported data file type is used to select the appropriate media interface manager and appropriate user interface. The user interface, or “skin” is selected for compatibility with the media interface manager and selected CODEC. The appropriate controls are enabled and displayed for user operation. As new CODECs are added to the system, appropriate media interface managers and skins are also added to provide the necessary user interface compatibility.

A prior digital biomarker for the brain health metric (computed from previously captured user interaction data by executing the function mapping) is accessed. A difference is detected between the digital biomarker and the prior digital biomarker. A change in a score of the neuropsychological test score is forecast to occur within a specified time range in the future based on the detected differences. The forecast change is output.
