Accuracy of Probabilistic Linkage Using the Enhanced Matching System for Public Health and Epidemiological Studies [PDF]
, 2015 The Enhanced Matching System (EMS) is a probabilistic record linkage program developed by the tuberculosis section at Public Health England to match data for individuals across two datasets. This paper outlines how EMS works and investigates its accuracy

Population Ecology, EarlyView.We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

A Bayesian Approach to Graphical Record Linkage and De-duplication [PDF]
, 2014 We propose an unsupervised approach for linking records across arbitrarily many files, while simultaneously detecting duplicate records within files. Our key innovation involves the representation of the pattern of links between records as a bipartite ...

A Comparison of Blocking Methods for Record Linkage
, 2014 Record linkage seeks to merge databases and to remove duplicates when unique identifiers are not available. Most approaches use blocking techniques to reduce the computational complexity associated with record linkage.

Quality and complexity measures for data linkage and deduplication [PDF]
, 2007 Summary. Deduplicating one data set or linking several data sets are increasingly important tasks in the data preparation steps of many data mining projects. The aim of such linkages is to match all records relating to the same entity.

Bayesian propagation of record linkage uncertainty into population size estimation of human rights violations [PDF]
Annals of Applied Statistics, 2018 Multiple-systems or capture-recapture estimation are common techniques for population size estimation, particularly in the quantitative study of human rights violations.

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...
