Linking Temporal Records
Summary: Time-aware record linkage via time decay to capture entity value evolution across long temporal spans. Instead of local pairwise comparisons, it applies time-ordered, global clustering to enforce temporal consistency and achieve significant gains over traditional linkage on temporal datasets.
