Distributed Representations of Tuples for Entity Resolution

Summary: DeepER encodes entire tuples as task-specific distributed representations via uni-/bidirectional LSTM RNNs, reducing labeling and feature engineering. An all-attribute LSH blocker yields compact candidate sets, delivering accurate, efficient ER across benchmark, biomedical, and multilingual data. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
