The return of jedAI

Abstract

JedAI is an Entity Resolution toolkit that can be used in three ways: (i) as an open-source library that combines state-of-the-art methods into a plethora of end-to-end workflows, (ii) as a user-friendly desktop application with a wizardlike interface that provides complex, out-of-the-box solutions even to lay users, and (iii) as a workbench for comparing the performance of numerous workflows over both structured and semi-structured data. Here, we present its significant upgrade, JedAI 2.0, which enhances the original version in three important respects: (i) time efficiency , as the running time has been drastically reduced with the use of high performance data structures and multi-core processing, (ii) effectiveness , since we enriched its library with more established methods, a new layer that exploits loose schema binding as well as the automatic, data-driven configuration of individual methods or entire workflows, and (iii) usability , as the GUI now enables users to manually configure any method based on concrete guidelines, to store the matching results into any of the supported data formats and to visually explore both input and output data.
