Generalized Bayesian Record Linkage and Regression with Exact Error Propagation [PDF]

open access: yesSteorts, R.C., Tancredi, A., Liseo, B. Generalized Bayesian Record Linkage and Regression with Exact Error Propagation, PSD (2018), 2018
Record linkage (de-duplication or entity resolution) is the process of merging noisy databases to remove duplicate entities. While record linkage removes duplicate entities from such databases, the downstream task is any inferential, predictive, or post-linkage task on the linked data.

A blinded evaluation of privacy preserving record linkage with Bloom filters

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2022
Background Privacy preserving record linkage (PPRL) methods using Bloom filters have shown promise for use in operational linkage settings. However real-world evaluations are required to confirm their suitability in practice.

RLT-S: A Web System for Record Linkage. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Record linkage integrates records across multiple related data sources identifying duplicates and accounting for possible errors. Real life applications require efficient algorithms to merge these voluminous data sources to find out all records belonging

Undiagnosed dementia in primary care: A record linkage study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BackgroundThe number of people living with dementia is greater than the number with a diagnosis of dementia recorded in primary care. This suggests that a significant number are living with dementia that is undiagnosed.

Bayesian Record Linkage with Variables in One File [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2023, 2023
In many healthcare and social science applications, information about units is dispersed across multiple data files. Linking records across files is necessary to estimate the associations of interest. Common record linkage algorithms only rely on similarities between linking variables that appear in all the files.

Historical Census Record Linkage. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Sociology, 2018
For the past 80 years, social scientists have been linking historical censuses across time to study economic and geographic mobility. In recent decades, the quantity of historical census record linkage has exploded, owing largely to the advent of new ...

Interactive Record Linkage [PDF]

open access: diamondDemographic Research, 2000
In order to carry out demographic analyses at individual and group levels, a manual method of linking individual event records from parish registers was developed in the late 1950s. In order to save time and to work with larger areas than small parishes,

Bayesian Propagation of Record Linkage Uncertainty into Population Size Estimation of Human Rights Violations [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2018, Volume 12, Number 2, 1013-1038, 2018
Multiple-systems or capture-recapture estimation are common techniques for population size estimation, particularly in the quantitative study of human rights violations. These methods rely on multiple samples from the population, along with the information of which individuals appear in which samples.

A Comparison of Blocking Methods for Record Linkage [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Record linkage seeks to merge databases and to remove duplicates when unique identifiers are not available. Most approaches use blocking techniques to reduce the computational complexity associated with record linkage. We review traditional blocking techniques, which typically partition the records according to a set of field attributes, and consider ...

An open-source probabilistic record linkage process for records with family-level information: Simulation study and applied analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2023
Research with administrative records involves the challenge of limited information in any single data source to answer policy-related questions. Record linkage provides researchers with a tool to supplement administrative datasets with other information ...
