Linking Individuals Across Historical Sources: a Fully Automated Approach∗
Linking individuals across historical datasets relies on information such as name and age that is both non-unique and prone to enumeration and transcription errors. These errors make it impossible to find the correct match with certainty. We suggest a fully automated method for linking historical datasets that enables researchers to create samples that minimize type I (false positives) and type...
متن کاملLinking Historical Censuses: a New Approach
This article describes a new initiative at the Minnesota Population Center (MPC) to create linked representative samples of individuals and family groups from the censuses of 1860, 1870, 1900 and 1910 to the 1880 census. This set of linked samples will provide new opportunities for researchers to carry out individuallevel analyses of social and geographic mobility and family transitions. This s...
متن کاملFully Automated Fact Checking Using External Sources
Given the constantly growing proliferation of false claims online in recent years, there has been also a growing research interest in automatically distinguishing false rumors from factually true claims. Here, we propose a general-purpose framework for fully-automatic fact checking using external sources, tapping the potential of the entire Web as a knowledge source to confirm or reject a claim...
متن کاملNetworking Historical Sources: A Demand-Side Driven Approach
Many archives have introduced online archival databases in the past few years. However, apart from being independent of place and time, hardly any of these databases make finding records any easier than it was before. This paper suggests to put more emphasis on the needs and behavior of users and to provide them with the context in which records were created, thus making it possible to link arc...
متن کاملA new fully automated approach for aligning and comparing shapes.
Three-dimensional geometric morphometric (3DGM) methods for placing landmarks on digitized bones have become increasingly sophisticated in the last 20 years, including greater degrees of automation. One aspect shared by all 3DGM methods is that the researcher must designate initial landmarks. Thus, researcher interpretations of homology and correspondence are required for and influence represen...
