Abstract

This disclosure involves modifying messaging data having unknown attribute values associated with entities to facilitate retrieval of address data for communications with the entities. For example, a system accesses a mapping of first addresses to an attribute, wherein the first addresses include (1) a target address for a target entity and (2) addresses associated with first entities in turn associated with first known values of the attribute. The system accesses a mapping of second addresses to an attribute, wherein the second addresses include (1) the target address for the target entity and (2) addresses associated with second entities in turn associated with second known values of the attribute. The system determines distributions of the first known values and the second known values, predicts a value of the attribute for the target entity based thereon, updates the messaging data therewith, and services a query for addresses having the predicted value.
