Systems, methods, and other techniques for genealogical entity resolution. In some embodiments, first tree data and second tree data are obtained, the first tree data corresponding to a first tree person and the second tree data corresponding to a second tree person. A set of features is extracted from the first tree data and the second tree data. An individual-level similarity score for each possible pairing of tree persons is generated based on the set of features. A set of most-similar tree persons is identified based on the individual-level similarity score for each possible pairing. A plurality of individual-level similarity vectors for the set of most-similar tree persons are provided as input to a family-level ML model to determine that the first tree person and the second tree person correspond to a same individual.

System and method for genealogical entity resolution

Systems, methods, and other techniques for genealogical entity resolution. The systems obtain first tree data and second tree data, the first tree data corresponding to a first tree person and the second tree data corresponding to a second tree person. The systems extract a set of features from the first tree data and the second tree data. The systems further generate an individual-level similarity score for each possible pairing of tree persons based on the set of features to identify a set of most-similar tree persons based on the individual-level similarity score for each possible pairing. The systems also provide a plurality of individual-level similarity scores for the set of most-similar tree persons as input to a family-level ML model to determine that the first tree person and the second tree person correspond to a same individual.
