Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for adding entities to a group of entity resolution candidates by selecting entities that have a minimum threshold of similarity to a candidate, allowing a greater number of resolutions in an entity resolution system. To resolve an incoming identity record, an initial group of candidates may be selected from known entities by identifying entities that match a candidate building attribute of the incoming identity record. Additional candidates may be selected by identifying entities with some information that is similar to one of the candidate entities.
