  • Method and system for facilitating distributed entity resolution
    Patent number: 12339812
    Abstract: A method for providing data blocking to facilitate distributed entity resolution is disclosed. The method includes receiving data sets from a source, the data sets including records that correspond to an entity; grouping each of the records into a block based on a shared characteristic, the block including a blocking key; converting the block into a data file, the data file corresponding to a predetermined file format; partitioning the data file based on the corresponding blocking key; determining, via a worker node, a potential record pair by using the partitioned data file; and persisting the potential record pair.

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING GEOSPATIAL INFORMATION
    Publication number: 20230260053
    Abstract: A method for providing geospatial information for clustered merchants based on proximate transactional data is disclosed. The method includes retrieving, via an application programming interface, transaction data for a geographical location that corresponds to the clustered merchants based on a predetermined parameter; identifying, from the transaction data, the proximate transactional data that correspond to the clustered merchants; linking transactions in the proximate transactional data to each of the clustered merchants; computing a weighted score for each of the transactions based on a characteristic; calculating a transaction centroid for each of the clustered merchants by using the corresponding weighted score and a result of the linking; and determining the geospatial information for each of the clustered merchants based on a distance to the corresponding transaction centroid.
