Robust Group Linkage [PDF]

, 2015
We study the problem of group linkage: linking records that refer to entities in the same group. Applications for group linkage include finding businesses in the same chain, finding conference attendees from the same affiliation, finding players from the

Unleashing The Power of Your Master Linkage Map – Is There A Role For Business Intelligence Tools In Supporting Data Linkage?

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2019
Background with rationale Business Intelligence (BI) software applications collect and process large amounts of data from one or more sources, and for a variety of purposes. These can include generating operational or sales reports, developing dashboards

Mapping genes through the use of linkage disequilibrium generated by genetic drift: 'Drift mapping' in small populations with no demographic expansion [PDF]

, 1998
Linkage disequilibrium has been a powerful tool in identifying rare disease alleles in human populations. To date, most research has been directed to isolated populations which have undergone a bottleneck followed by rapid exponential expansion.

Improving Cardiac Insights: Harnessing Privacy-Preserving Record Linkage (PPRL) to Obtain, Link, and Enhance Data for a Healthier Australia

International Journal of Population Data Science
Objective General Practices (GPs) collect vital information on health and disease in Australia, however much of this sensitive data is difficult to share for linkage purposes due to confidentiality and privacy concerns. PPRL techniques have presented an

The effect of cross-jurisdictional linked hospital and death data on estimating risk-adjusted grouped hospital standardised mortality ratios in Australia

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2017
Objectives The Population Health Research Network (PHRN) was established to increase data linkage capacity in Australia. A proof of concept study investigating cross border hospital use and hospital mortality was undertaken to demonstrate the ...

Leveraging Machine Learning to Combat Missingness and Error in Data

International Journal of Population Data Science
Objective Poor quality data confounds efforts to link clients across datasets. To combat this, we have trialed an approach which seeks to identify linkage candidates using associations with related services.  We utilised a machine learning (ML) approach

The Western Australia Population-based Burn Injury Project: Using record linkage to examine long-term effects of burn injury

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2017
Objectives While the most obvious impact of a burn is a visible scar, there are hidden impacts. The main contributors to adverse health outcomes after burns are the metabolic, inflammatory, immune and endocrine changes that occur in response to the ...

Colorectal cancer linkage on chromosomes 4q21, 8q13, 12q24, and 15q22 [PDF]

, 2012
A substantial proportion of familial colorectal cancer (CRC) is not a consequence of known susceptibility loci, such as mismatch repair (MMR) genes, supporting the existence of additional loci.
