Abstract

"Um die Verwendbarkeit der verschiedener Ähnlichkeitsmaße für fehlerbehaftete Namen auch für deutsche Namen vergleichen zu können, entwickelten wir eine 'Matching Tool-Box' (MTB). MTB besteht aus mehreren, transportablen JAVA-Programmen. MTB dient zur Entwicklung von Pre-processing-Werkzeugen und de... view more

"Um die Verwendbarkeit der verschiedener Ähnlichkeitsmaße für fehlerbehaftete Namen auch für deutsche Namen vergleichen zu können, entwickelten wir eine 'Matching Tool-Box' (MTB). MTB besteht aus mehreren, transportablen JAVA-Programmen. MTB dient zur Entwicklung von Pre-processing-Werkzeugen und dem Vergleich von String-Ähnlichkeitsmaßen. MTB wurde erfolgreich in sozial- und wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen sowie epidemiologischen Forschungsprojekten eingesetzt." (Autorenreferat)... view less

"We developed a record-linkage toolbox in order to compare the performance of various string-similarity measures for German surnames. This 'Matching Tool-Box' (MTB) is made up by independent, highly portable JAVA-programs. MTB is currently used for prototyping pre-processing tools and the empirical comparison of string-similarity measures. Furthermore, MTB has been used successfully in sociological, economical and epidemiological research projects." (author's abstract)... view less
