Abstract
The present disclosure relates to fuse multiple database tables together. The fields of the database tables may be normalized using semantic fields. Under a first approach, database tables are deduplicated by consolidating redundant records. This may be done by performing pairwise comparisons to identify related pairs of records and then clustering the related pairs of records. Then, the deduplicated database tables are merged by performing another pairwise comparison. Under a second approach, the database tables may be concatenated. Thereafter, records are subject to pairwise comparisons and then clustered to create a merged database table.
