MDedup: Duplicate Detection with Matching Dependencies

Summary: MDedup uses automatically discovered matching dependencies (MDs) for domain-free duplicate detection. A trained model selects MD-based rules from features and gold standards, with boosting to improve recall, achieving up to 94% F-measure and 100% precision. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
