Generalized Record Linkage System – Statistics Canada’s Record Linkage Software
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016 The Generalized Record Linkage System is a probabilistic record linkage system designed for use by a wide range of statistical applications. It is part of a toolbox of generalized systems developed at Statistics Canada in response to business and health ...

Building a repository for record linkage
International Journal of Population Data Science, 2018 ICPSR is building LinkageLibrary, a repository and community space for researchers involved in linking and combining datasets, as a collaboration between social, statistical, and computer scientists. Unlike surveys or experiments where causal and outcome variables are measured in tandem, it is often necessary when working with organic, non-design data ...

Validating Distance-Based Record Linkage with Probabilistic Record Linkage [PDF]
, 2002 This work compares two alternative methods for record linkage: distance based and probabilistic record linkage. It compares the performance of both approaches when data is categorical. To that end, a distance over ordinal and nominal scales is defined.

Demystifying probabilistic linkage
International 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

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...
