Abstract
A method for merging data includes: obtaining an existing dataset and a new dataset; grouping the new dataset and the existing dataset based on data types to obtain a plurality of data type groups; performing data type specific processing to generate similarity features; generating a plurality of similarity matrices using the similarity features; performing a comparison between the existing dataset and the new dataset using optimization and the plurality of similarity matrices to identify mappings between the existing dataset and the new dataset; performing data type specific validation to obtain an updated existing dataset, an updated new dataset, matches, partial matches, and new items; obtaining user preferences associated with the mappings, the matches, the partial matches, and the new items; and generating merged data using the updated existing dataset, the updated new dataset, the mappings, the matches, the partial matches, the new items, and the user preferences.
