Abstract
A system and method for the creation of household links (HHLs) associates each household with particular consumers associated with a consumer link (CL) and an address link (AL). The system and method utilize a feedback loop system to maintain persistence of HHLs over time and more accurately resolve HHLs. Top-down and bottom-up clustering methods are applied to the data, and the best results are taken to generate the final association of HHLs with particular ALs and CLs. By more accurately identifying the households associated with particular consumer data, the invention significantly reduces the storage requirements and time required for processing very large consumer data sets.
