Abstract
The determination of a unique user is discussed in response to receiving a dataset comprising multiple user identifiers (IDs). In some cases the user IDs may be of a different type. User IDs may be compared directly to determine whether they correspond to a unique user. Network transactions and attributes associated with those network transactions may be compared to determine a probability of whether two user IDs correspond to a unique user. Network transactions and attributes associated with those network transactions may also be compared to determine that two user IDs do not correspond to a unique user.
