Ask HN: Tools/research to identify semantic types of data in databases?

There is such an idea that data is not just integers/strings/floats and so on but has a semantic type attached that identifies its logic. For example, it could be postcode, country name, business registry number, and so on.

I know several open-source PII detection tools that could connect to SQL databases and detect personal data. And some commercial ETL/data prep tools could identify semantic types.

Is there any deep research on this topic and an advanced tool to work with semantic types?
