Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to reduce a remapping error. An example apparatus includes a distance matrix generator to generate a distance matrix corresponding to a first household demographic model and a second household demographic model. The example apparatus also includes a distance matrix identifier to determine a reassignment distance of the distance matrix. The example apparatus also includes a person identification assigner to, in response to the reassignment distance being less than a reassignment threshold, assign a person identification number of a first person of the first household to a second person of the second household based on the distance matrix.
