Optimal assignment problem on record linkage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present an application of the Hungarian Method, an optimal assignment graph theory algorithm, to record linkage in order to improve the disclosure risk assessment. We should note that Hungarian Method has O(n^3) complexity; three different methods are
