Coreference detection of low quality objects [PDF]
, 2012 The problem of record linkage is a widely studied problem that aims to identify coreferent (i.e. duplicate) data in a structured data source. As indicated by Winkler, a solution to the record linkage problem is only possible if the error rate is ...

Sociodemographic differences in linkage error: an examination of four large-scale datasets
BMC Health Services Research, 2018 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 ...

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1979 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,

Real-time linkage: when is near enough good enough?
International Journal of Population Data Science, 2017 Objectives Timely data on the health and vital status of study participants is important for cohort management and patient recruitment processes in addition to traditional observational research. We have investigated the potential to modify data sourcing

Privacy preserved incremental record linkage
Journal of Big Data, 2022 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.
