Abstract

Record linkage is considered a fundamental process for ensuring data quality and reliability, with critical applications in domains such as healthcare, finance, and commerce. A machine learning-based approach for optimizing record linkage in structured datasets is presented in this paper. By integrating hybrid blocking methods (combining standard blocking and sorted neighborhood approaches) with advanced similarity measures, computational overhead is significantly reduced while high accuracy is maintained. The performance of TabNet, a deep learning model designed for tabular data, is compared with traditional deep neural networks (DNNs) in the classification phase. Experimental results on a synthetic dataset of 5,000 records demonstrate that comparable precision and recall are achieved by TabNet to DNNs while execution time is reduced by over 79%. The scalability and efficiency of the proposed method are highlighted by these findings, making it well-suited for large-scale data management tasks. Practical and computationally efficient solutions for record linkage in the era of big data are contributed to by this work.
