    Microdata provides tremendous value in socioeconomic analysis. However, these data may not be easily discoverable when metadata are not as rich, structured, and optimized as they could be. In the case of microdata, an issue is the semantic discoverability of information contained in the variable-level metadata (the data dictionary). This paper presents an unsupervised framework that leverages...
