Alignment API, release notes
To do
- Pass debug flag through parameters (almost done, to be checked in StrucSubsDistNameAlignment);
- Factorize distanceAlignment, in fact the selection;
- Implement correctly OWL-based stuff about non 1:1 alignments
- Integrate WordNet proximity
- Providing an XSLT stylesheet for evaluation;
Done but not released yet
- Added an "id" to each cell (in API, Renderer and Parser);
- Provided an XSLT stylesheet for alignments;
April 19th, 2004
New version featuring:
- Corrected the problem of putting directly distances into strength
({get/set}Measure{1/2} are now called Strength,
new class DistanceAlignment which takes care of converting distances into strength);
- Implemented effectively SymMeanEvaluator with a dispatch per elements;
- Added correct 1:1 tags to all implemented OWL alignments
- Used Object in API: no OWL in the format (all API methods which
returned OWL... now returns Objects, dynamic typecheckking of the
basic methods: maybe not the best idea)
- Implemented parameters (align() and eval() take an additionnal
Parameters parameter, new Parameters interface and
BasicParameters class);
- Corrected the visitor for the Renderer (now robust to subclassing);
- Built a renderer for RDF and use it
(suppression of the write method in Cell and Alignment,
Procalign uses the same code for rendering);
- Added a StringDistance class providing substring and editstriung distances;
- Reviewed all catch with a printStackTraces (parser still unsatisfactory);
- Cleaned-up traces;
- Provided a full-fledged example illustrated with a paper;
- Corrected StrucSubsDistNameAlignment;
- Changed name: Evaluator.evaluate() --> Evaluator.eval();
