Abstract
Relational database systems (RDBSs) are well-known and widely used in many organizations, however, semantic conflicts between the participating RDBSs must be resolved before data can be exchanged between them. Semantic resolution between the RDBSs is extremely difficult to address mainly because participating RDBSs are designed and built independently. Furthermore, individual RDBSs are likely to evolve over time and the changes must be reconciled dynamically. In this paper, we describe an approach to resolve the semantic conflicts between RDBSs automatically while allowing the individual RDBSs to evolve. Relational database ontology (RDBO) is created and used to ensure the semantic descriptions of the individual RDBSs are conformed to a set of vocabularies, structures, and restrictions. We show how a modified reasoning engine is used to validate and infer additional semantic relationships from the existing relationships. We also show how terms defined in different database ontologies are compared to each other semantically using semantic weights and our modified reasoning engine. As a result, RDBSs can intemperate with each other seamlessly and at the correct level of semantics defined in their ontologies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
