Description

Ramon Pereira, Wagner Meira Junior, and Augusto Afonso Guerra Junior test taught machine models for linking records about the same person, in a study from 2024. Health systems hold many records, and telling which pairs match is slow when done by hand rules.

The team built a checked set of record pairs from Brazil health data, with traits such as name, sex, city, and birth date. They tried four model types on a sample of pairs. One tree based model scored best, and a privacy safe coded form still scored well. The authors say taught models can set weights and calls in one step.
