Abstract
In this paper, we study the ontology matching problem and propose an algorithm, which uses as a backbone a multi-level matching technique and performs a neighbor search to find the correspondences between the entities in the given ontologies. A main feature of this algorithm is the high quality of the matches it finds. Besides, as the result of the initial search introduced, our algorithm converges fast, making it comparable to existing techniques.
