Abstract:
1. A computer implemented method for breaking links between a plurality of entity references, each respective entity reference from the plurality of entity references comprising at least one data field in common with all other entity references from the plurality of entity references and being associated with a same Definitive Identifier (DID) as all other entity references from the plurality of entity references, the method comprising: determining, by a processor, for each respective data field from the at least one data field in common between the entity references from the plurality of entity references, a variance of field values among entity references from the plurality of entity references; and responsive to determining, for a first data field from the at least one data field in common, that the respective variance of field values exceeds a predetermined threshold associated with the first data field, disassociating the DID in common from each entity reference from the plurality of entity references.
