SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING DUPLICATE ENTITIES BASED ON A RELATIONSHIP CARDINALITY IN PRODUCTION KNOWLEDGE BASE REPOSITORY

摘要

Disclosed is a system and method for managing one or more duplicate entities based on a relationship cardinality in a production knowledge base repository. The method comprises steps of performing a first level detection of duplicates in existing data present in the production knowledge base repository through an object harmonisation module (202). The first level detection identifies duplicates of one or more attribute objects within a specific entity. The object harmonisation module (202) implements a sanitization and standardization operation on the identified attribute objects. Then the method performs a second level detection of duplicates between entities of a specific concept through a homogeneity recognition module (204). The homogeneity recognition module (204) identifies duplicates according to base-attributes of the specific concept based on a predefined similarity threshold. The method then enables a user to determine the similarity of the entities and further enables the user to merge the similar entities through an entity conflation and merging module (206).
