Fast Record Linkage for Company Entities [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data), 2019
Record linkage is an essential part of nearly all real-world systems that consume structured and unstructured data coming from different sources. Typically no common key is available for connecting records.

Privacy preserving record linkage meets record linkage using unencrypted data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Population Data Science, 2018
Introduction Privacy preserving record linkage (PPRL) resolves privacy concerns because of its capabilities to link encrypted identifiers. It encrypts identifiers using bloom filters and performs record matching based on encrypted data using dice ...

Probabilistic linkage to enhance deterministic algorithms and reduce data linkage errors in hospital administrative data

open access: yesJournal of Innovation in Health Informatics, 2017
Background: The pseudonymisation algorithm used to link together episodes of care belonging to the same patient in England [Hospital Episode Statistics ID (HESID)] has never undergone any formal evaluation to determine the extent of data linkage error ...

Record‐linkage for pharmacovigilance in Scotland [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1999
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

Demystifying probabilistic linkage

open access: yesInternational Journal of Population Data Science, 2018
Many of the distinctions made between probabilistic and deterministic linkage are misleading. While these two approaches to record linkage operate in different ways and can produce different outputs, the distinctions between them are more a result of how

Composing Differential Privacy and Secure Computation: A Case Study on Scaling Private Record Linkage [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Computer and Communications Security, 2017
Private record linkage (PRL) is the problem of identifying pairs of records that are similar as per an input matching rule from databases held by two parties that do not trust one another. We identify three key desiderata that a PRL solution must ensure:
