Abstract
A Record Linkage Production Data Quality (RLPDQ) tool provides an independent record linkage system producing comparative results with a production record linkage system and an efficient arbitration operation to resolve respective confusion matrices for the two systems. The tool can be used for enhancing the output of record linkage engines, for merging different files into a third file containing expanded descriptions of common entities in both files, and for making testable improvements to a record linkage engine.
