Patent number: 10459935Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are disclosed for generating integrated data records by correlating source data records stored at different registry source data repositories. A set of source data records is retrieved based on execution of one or more search queries against a set of registry source data repositories. A data record matching rule is selected for execution on the set of source data records. The matching rule specifies one or more input properties, each of which specifies at least one data field designator, and optionally, a matching algorithm and an input property match threshold value. The matching rule is executed on pairwise combinations of source data records to obtain a set of matched source data records. An integrated data record is generated and populated with respective data from each of one or more of the matched source data records. The integrated data record is linked to each source record.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2015Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: FISERV, INC.Inventors: Mark Edward Bowman, Vikram Gupta, Phillip Andrew Schroder, Gregory David Smelker, Amirali Sunderji, Mary Elizabeth Lawson, Timothy Allen Ruhe
