Online Topic-Aware Entity Resolution Over Incomplete Data Streams

Summary: Proposes TER-iDS: online, topic-aware ER over incomplete data streams; imputes missing attributes to link identical entities. Introduces online imputation, pruning, compact indexes/synopsis; efficient TER-iDS index-join algorithm; validated on real data. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
