Exploiting Evidence from Unstructured Data to Enhance Master Data Management

Summary: Extends master data management beyond structured sources with an architecture and IBM implementation that correlates noisy textual entity mentions from news, email, transcripts, and chats. Uses extracted evidence to improve entity resolution and relationship discovery while preserving trusted MDM data. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
