Sociodemographic differences in linkage error: an examination of four large-scale datasets
Background Record linkage is an important tool for epidemiologists and health planners. Record linkage studies will generally contain some level of residual record linkage error, where individual records are either incorrectly marked as belonging to the ...

Record‐linkage for pharmacovigilance in Scotland [PDF]
Record‐linkage is the linkage of patient‐specific information that is stored separately. Recent advances in computerization have meant that record‐linkage techniques in medical research are increasingly being used and refined. In particular, they have made a significant contribution to pharmacovigilance, which involves linking drug exposure to outcomes

Incremental record linkage [PDF]
Record linkage clusters records such that each cluster corresponds to a single distinct real-world entity. It is a crucial step in data cleaning and data integration. In the big data era, the velocity of data updates is often high, quickly making previous linkage results obsolete.

Privacy preserved incremental record linkage
Using an incremental approach to solve the record linkage problem is a relatively new research area. In incremental record linkage, every inserted record is compared with some existing clusters of records based on its blocking key value.

In cancer epidemiology, prospective approaches are very important both in testing etiological hypotheses and in evaluating preventive procedures. Prospective studies, however, are very difficult and expensive, because a large number of people and a long period of observation are necessary for a satisfactory study. As a data source for follow-up studies,
