Abstract: A method for linking records (related to an entity) from separate databases may include extracting a first record from a first database as a first vector, extracting a second record from a second database as a second vector, generating first and second sub-vectors for the first and second vectors, where each sub-vector includes quality features from the respective vector, pre-processing the first and second sub-vectors using domain knowledge, calculating a distance assessment classifier based on the first and second sub-vectors, and determining whether the distance represented by the distance assessment classifier is greater than a threshold. If the distance is greater than the threshold, the records may be linked; if not, the method extracts additional records and repeats after generating first and second sub-vectors until the distance is greater than the threshold. A system for linking records is also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for compressing and comparing data such as genomic data. The disclosed systems and methods may include selecting a segment, creating a delta representation of the segment, the delta representation comprising a script, and storing the script. Furthermore, the disclosed systems and methods may include receiving a first script comprising a compressed version of a first segment and receiving a second script comprising a compressed version of a second segment. The disclosed systems and methods may further include comparing the first script to the second script and determining if the first segment matches the second segment based upon the comparison of the first script to the second script.
