-# Semantic Match Registry
-
-This is a proof-of-concept implementation of a Semantic Match Registry (SMR) service using Python. 
-The idea behind this service is to create a uniform interface for exchanging semantic matches, that are stored
-decentralized across multiple semantic matching services. 
-
-> [!warning]
-> This project is **not** about finding semantic matches or semantic similarities, it rather requires these as input.
-
-## Structure
-The project is structured as follows:
-- `algorithm.py` implements the decentralized match aggregation algorithm
-- `service.py` offers the service implementation using the [FastAPI](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/) framework.
-  Note that you can find a detailed interface description (OpenAPI) by [running](#how-to-use) the server locally and 
-  navigating to `<endpoint>/docs`.
-
-## How to Use
-There are two main options to run:
-
-### Run `service.py`
-You need a working Python installation (3.11 or higher).
-- Clone this repository
-- Create a new virtual environment: `python3 -m venv venv` (Note that the service is only tested on Linux systems)
-- Activate the virtual environment: `source venv/bin/activate`
-- Install the package: `pip install .`
-- Copy the `config.ini.default` to `config.ini` and adapt the fields as necessary
-- Run the service: `python3 semantic_matcher/service.py`
-
-### Run via Docker
-To run via docker, you obviously need a working docker installation.
-- Clone the repository
-- Copy the `config.ini.default` to `config.ini` and adapt the fields as necessary
-- Choose one of the two options below:
-
-**Option 1:** Build and run manually
-
-In the project root directory:
-```commandline
-docker build -t semantic_match_registry .
-```
-```commandline
-docker run -d -p 8000:8000 semantic_match_registry
-```
-
-> [!note]
-> You may have to change the port in the run command if you changed it in your `config.ini`. 
-
-**Option 2:** Use the docker compose file
-
-In the project root directory:
-```commandline
-docker compose up
-```
-
-> [!note]
-> If you changed your `config.ini`, you might need to adapt the respective fields in the `compose.yaml`.
