Conceptual Framework for entity integration from multiple data sources
summary
Proposes an iterative ordering algorithm that scores datasets by completeness/overlap/inverse/accuracy to decide which sources to merge first, implemented as a Python implementation, not just pairwise matching. Demonstrates it on a real CRM consolidation: about 64 offices and 15–20 disparate CRMs with millions versus thousands of records, multiple languages and alphabets, and shows the approach reduces wasted comparisons and supports incremental merging. Connects to University of Wisconsin open‑source work (Python/Jupyter) and reports experiments and pending publication.
