AUTO DETECTION OF MATCHING FIELDS IN ENTITY RESOLUTION SYSTEMS

摘要

Methods, computer program products and/or systems are provided that perform the following operations: obtaining payload attribute fields; determining potential matching fields from the payload attribute fields; determining a matching function for each of the potential matching fields; determining an attribute score for each of the potential matching fields based on the matching function; obtaining a score list for a reference data set; determining a correlation of the attribute score for each of the potential matching fields with the reference data set score list; selecting new matching fields from the potential matching fields based at least in part on the correlation; determining an optimal weight for each of the selected new matching fields; selecting attribute fields for matching from the selected new matching fields based on a threshold rate for false positives and false negatives; and providing the attribute fields for matching and the associated optimal weight for the attribute fields.
