ALIAS*: An Active Learning led Interactive Deduplication System

Summary: Active-learning guides interactive deduplication, needing only a few domain-specific attribute similarities and a small set of labeled record pairs. A cluster-based execution model enables scalable application of the learned deduplication function to large datasets. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
