CrowdER: Crowdsourcing Entity Resolution

Summary: CrowdER uses a machine-driven coarse pass to prune candidate pairs, saving human effort. Minimizing verification batches is NP-hard; a two-tiered batched-heuristic yields efficient, accurate results, demonstrated on real datasets via crowdsourcing.
