Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein provide a system and method for associating data records in multiple languages within a single hub. As a record comes in from an information source coupled to the hub, it is associated with a particular language at a core layer. The hub maps each language one-to-one to a member type. For each data record of a particular member type, unique derivation code is utilized to perform standardization and bucketing at a derived layer. A weight may be used to balance the richness of languages so that data records in different languages can have the same statistical meaning. Since attributes are standardized with respect to a language of a data record, appropriate languages or script can be passed along with the data record. The hub can then match the data record to the optimum algorithm(s) for entity processing at an entity layer.
