An increasing number of linked datasets is published on the Web, using RDF(S)/OWL. The availability of the schema describing these datasets is crucial for their meaningful usage. A dataset may contain schema-related information, however, languages do not impose any constraint on their structure, and a gap may therefore exist between the schema and the actual instances. In this paper, we tackle the problem of evaluating this gap. We present an approach relying on both type and class profiles, as well as a set of quality metrics. We also present some experimental evaluations to illustrate the use of the proposed metrics.
