SimEval - A Tool for Evaluating the Quality of Similarity Functions
Heuser, C.A., Krieser, F.N.A. and Orengo, V.M.
Approximate data matching applications typically
use similarity functions to quantify the degree of likeness between two data instances. There are several
similarity functions available, thus, it is often necessary to evaluate a number of them aiming at choosing
the function that is more adequate to a specific application. This paper presents a tool that uses average
precision and discernability to evaluate the quality of similarity functions over a data set. |
