The Role of Asserted Resolution in Entity Identity Information Management
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces the concept of asserted resolution as a technique for entity resolution. In asserted resolution trusted information sources are used to force the equivalence (or non-equivalence) of entity references and identity structures regardless of matching conditions. The paper proposes five specific forms of assertion to support entity identity information management, the process of storing and maintaining identity information in an information system so that references to an entity can be recognized and labeled with the same identifier over time. The paper also gives a description of the way in which asserted resolution is being implemented in the OYSTER open source entity resolution system.

Entity identity information management (EIIM)
This paper introduces and defines the concept of entity identity information management (EIIM). EIIM is a component of entity identity management (EIM) that utilizes data structures, data integration, and entity resolution (ER) methods and algorithms in order to maintain entity identity integrity, a goal that EIIM shares with master data management (MDM). The paper also explores some of the des...
متن کاملEntity Identification in Documents Expressing Shared Relationships
This paper addresses the problem of entity identification in documents in which key identity attributes are missing. The most common approach is to take a single entity reference and determine the “best match” of its attributes to a set of candidate identities selected from an appropriate entity catalog. This paper describes a new technique of multiple-reference, shared-relationship identity re...
متن کاملThe Effect of Transitive Closure on the Calibration of Logistic Regression for Entity Resolution
This paper describes a series of experiments in using logistic regression machine learning as a method for entity resolution. From these experiments the authors concluded that when a supervised ML algorithm is trained to classify a pair of entity references as linked or not linked pair, the evaluation of the model’s performance should take into account the transitive closure of its pairwise lin...
متن کاملDeciding Confidence for Identity Resolution in Closed and Open Universes of Entity Identity Information
Entity Identity Information Management (EIIM) systems provide the information technology support for Master Data Management (MDM) systems. One of the most important configurations of an EIIM system is identity resolution. In an identity resolution configuration, the EIIM system accepts a batch of entity references and returns the corresponding entity identifiers. However, these batch EIIM syste...
متن کاملEntity Resolution and Master Data Life Cycle Management in the Era of Big Data
Proper management of master data is a critical component of any enterprise information system. However, effective master data management (MDM) requires that both IT and Business understand the life cycle of master data and the fundamental principles of entity resolution (ER). This paper provides a high-level overview of current practices in data matching, record linking, and entity information ...
