Abstract

This paper provides an overview of methods and systems developed for record linkage. Modern record linkage begins with the pioneering work of Newcombe and is especially based on the formal mathematical model of Fellegi and Sunter. In their seminal work, Fellegi and Sunter introduced many powerful ideas for estimating record linkage parameters and other ideas that still influence record linkage today. Record linkage research is characterized by its synergism of statistics, computer science, and...
