Prior research has shown large-scale cardinality matching (CM) to be associated with superior patient retention and comparable systematic bias as compared propensity score (PSM). However, methods may not applicable in all settings. The current study non-large-scale PSM CM terms of post-match retention, covariate balance residual confounding at progressively smaller sample sizes. We identified n...

Solution concepts in social environments use either a direct or indirect dominance relationship, depending on whether it is assumed that agents are myopic or farsighted. Direct dominance implies indirect dominance, but not the reverse. Hence, the predicted outcomes when assuming myopic (direct) or farsighted (indirect) agents could be very different. In this paper, we characterize dominance inv...

Automating schema matching is challenging. Previous approaches (e.g. [DDH01, RB01]) to automating schema matching focus on computing direct matches between two schemas. Schemas, however, rarely match directly. Thus, to complete the task of schema matching, we must also compute indirect matches. In this paper, we focus on recognizing expected values as a technique to discover many direct and ind...

Ontology matching consists of generating a set of correspondences between the entities of two ontologies. This process is seen as a solution to data heterogeneity in ontology-based applications, enabling the interoperability between them. However, existing matching systems are designed by assuming that the entities of both source and target ontologies are written in the same languages ( English...
