Parallel Computing Techniques for High-Performance Probabilistic Record Linkage
Record linkage techniques are used to link together records from one or more data sets relating to the same entity, e.g. patient or customer. As data is often not primarily collected for data analysis purposes, a common unique identifi er is missing in many cases, and probabilistic linkage techniques have to be applied. Historical collections of administrative and other (health) data nowadays c...
متن کاملProbabilistic Linkage of Persian Record with Missing Data
Extended Abstract. When the comprehensive information about a topic is scattered among two or more data sets, using only one of those data sets would lead to information loss available in other data sets. Hence, it is necessary to integrate scattered information to a comprehensive unique data set. On the other hand, sometimes we are interested in recognition of duplications in a data set. The i...
متن کاملProbabilistic record linkage
Studies involving the use of probabilistic record linkage are becoming increasingly common. However, the methods underpinning probabilistic record linkage are not widely taught or understood, and therefore these studies can appear to be a 'black box' research tool. In this article, we aim to describe the process of probabilistic record linkage through a simple exemplar. We first introduce the c...
متن کاملValidating Distance-Based Record Linkage with Probabilistic Record Linkage
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. The paper shows that, for categorical data, distance-based and probabilistic-based record linkage lead to similar results in relation to the num...
متن کاملProbabilistic Record Linkage for Genealogical Research
The most slow and tedious job in genealogical research is searching civil or church records for information about an individual. But, this is an essential step in research. By searching multiple sources such as census records, wills, deeds, birth and death records we can compile a more complete set of information, and potentially the pedigree of an individual. When records are stored electronic...
