Record linkage

WIREs Computational Statistics, 2010
AbstractThis article describes methods for matching duplicates within or across files using non‐unique identifiers such as first name, last name, date of birth, address, and other characteristics.

A Theory for Record Linkage

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1969
Abstract A mathematical model is developed to provide a theoretical framework for a computer-oriented solution to the problem of recognizing those records in two files which represent identical persons, objects or events (said to be matched). A comparison is to be made between the recorded characteristics and values in two records (one from each file ...

Record Linkage and Counterterrorism

CHANCE, 2004
•••• •••••• •• • •• •••• Record linkage is the process of combining information about individuals or entities across databases. In order to conduct a statistical analysis, one often has to combine information on people or units from various sources. Considering the possibilityof terrorist threats, record linkage takes on additional significanceit might

Scalable Record Linkage

2018 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data), 2018
We present a record linkage solution that scales to big data volumes and velocities. Our method trains a Siamese deep learning network to encode records so that matching can be done fast and distributed. Compared to the current state-of-the-art methods using similarity functions and blocking, our solution links 100x the data in roughly 60% the time ...

An Operational Approach to Record Linkage

Methods of Information in Medicine, 1983
An operational approach to computerized record linkage has been developed based on the concept of probability of chance match in two groups of records brought together for comparison. Tolerance levels can be readily derived from these records for decision-making in accepting or rejecting a linked pair. This approach is especially suitable for iteration

Coding and Record Linkage

1996
One of the greatest joys of modern database systems is that they make straightforward what was once complicated. Before the database revolution, the manipulation of large historical datasets generally required the writing of customised computer programs.

GWSM and Record Linkage [PDF]

open access: possible, 2007
Data from different sources are increasingly being combined to augment the amount of information that we have. Often, the databases are combined using record linkage. When the files involved have a unique identifier that can be used, the linkage is done directly using the identifier as a matching key. When there is no unique identifier, a probabilistic
