US-Japan Data Linkage.

Probabilistic 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...

Data Linkage Algebra, Data Linkage Dynamics, and Priority Rewriting

We introduce an algebra of data linkages. Data linkages are intended for modelling the states of computations in which dynamic data structures are involved. We present a simple model of computation in which states of computations are modelled as data linkages and state changes take place by means of certain actions. We describe the state changes and replies that result from performing those act...

Linkage Rate Between Data From Health Checks and Health Insurance Claims in the Japan National Database

BACKGROUND Japan's National Database (NDB) includes data on health checks and health insurance claims, is linkable using hash functions, and is available for research use. However, the linkage rate between health check and health insurance claims data has not been investigated. METHODS Linkage rate was evaluated by comparing observed medical and pharmaceutical charges among health check recip...

Data Stream Linkage Mechanism

(DSLM), a program can be built by linking program modules to form a network through which data passes. The network is speciJed by the program designer using a mixture of pre-coded and custom coded modules. This linkage technique and the capabilities that result from it constitute an approach to programming that is radically diferent from conventional techniques. It can increase the productivity...
