RESOLVING SIMILAR ENTITIES FROM A TRANSACTION DATABASE

摘要

A technique for identifying related transaction records from a database storing transaction records for multiple entities includes grouping transaction records with a common attribute value into transaction record sets, receiving a selection of an exemplar record set and determining the probability the transaction record set stores transaction records associated with a first entity. Other operations include resolving the transaction record set as storing transaction records associated with the first entity. This improves the process of identifying related transaction records because related transaction records missed by string comparisons transaction record attributes are detected.
