Package de.fzi.kadmos.evaluator Description

Provides an API for evaluating ontology alignments. This package provides interfaces for evaluatidealining with ontology alignments. Classes providing specific methods in order to evaluate an ontology alignment implement the Evaluator interface. Since evaluators can differ significantly in the methods they provide, the Evaluator interface is empty and solely represents the an evaluator type. Specific evaluators are represented as subinterfaces thereof. Default implementations of the interfaces can be found in the package de.fzi.kadmos.evaluator.impl. Despite many evaluators using a reference alignment the interfaces do not define methods or method signatures that specify such a reference alignment. Developers implementing evaluators, which use reference alignments are encouraged to take the reference alignment as argument when constructing the evaluator object. The assumption is that reference alignments are not expected to change frequently and thus can be immutable wrt. to the evaluator.
