Calculating Term Similarity Using A Meta-Model Semantic Network

In example embodiments, a technique is provided to determine the similarity between two terms. For example, example embodiments may store a meta-model semantic network that includes a first and second term. Further, both the first and second terms are respectively associated with model and meta-model information. A request to calculate a term similarity value is received. A term similarity value expresses a correlation between the first term and the second term. The term similarity value is then calculated based on a comparison of the model and the meta-model information associated with the first and second terms.
