Fellegi-Sunter Method, Record Linkage, Block Diagram, Automated matching, Auxiliary Approach, Probabilistic Record Linkage, Matching Criteria, Key Terms, Data Processing, Data Matching Algorithm, Record Linkage Methodology, Matching Report, Data Integration, Probabilistic Model.Abstract
This scientific article explores the block diagram and key indicators of the Fellegi-Sunter method. The method provides an auxiliary and reliable approach for automated record linkage. The block diagram illustrates the detailed steps of the automated matching process, emphasizing the utilization of the Fellegi-Sunter algorithm.
