  • Patent number: 12143670
    Abstract: An example apparatus includes a distance matrix generator to determine a number of remapping combinations corresponding to a first and a second household demographic model, generate (a) a first age-based household demographic model and a second age-based household demographic model and (b) a third age-based household demographic model and a fourth age-based household demographic model, generate a first distance matrix corresponding to the first and the third age-based household demographic model, and generate a second distance matrix corresponding to the second and the fourth age-based household demographic model, a distance matrix identifier to determine a first and a second reassignment distance and a person identification assigner to assign a person identification number of a first person corresponding to the first household to a second person corresponding to the second household based on the first distance matrix or the second distance matrix.

  • Patent number: 11089366
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to reduce a remapping error. An example apparatus includes a distance matrix generator to generate a distance matrix corresponding to a first household demographic model and a second household demographic model. The example apparatus also includes a distance matrix identifier to determine a reassignment distance of the distance matrix. The example apparatus also includes a person identification assigner to, in response to the reassignment distance being less than a reassignment threshold, assign a person identification number of a first person of the first household to a second person of the second household based on the distance matrix.
