Abstract
At least one attribute type associated with an individual in a first record of a first database and one or more similar attribute types in record(s) of other second database(s) are located. The attribute types compared. Based on the comparison, a first weighted score for the first record and another weighted score for each other records are computed. The weighted score indicates a likelihood the particular attribute type is associated with a same individual as other attribute type(s) located in other record(s) and further accounts for a time delta between measurements of the attribute types. Confidence score outputs for the records are also computed. The confidence score output of a record is based on all weighted scores of that record and indicates a likelihood that record is associated with the same individual. At least one database is updated based on at least one of the confidence score outputs.
