multilink

multilink is an R package which performs Bayesian probabilistic record linkage. It handles the general problem of multifile record linkage and duplicate detection, where any number of files are to be linked, and any of the files may have duplicates. multilink implements methodology presented in the manuscript "Multifile Partitioning for Record Linkage and Duplicate Detection" by Serge Aleshin-Guendel and Mauricio Sadinle, published in the Journal of the American Statistical Association and available on arXiv. For more information on using multilink, please see the multilink_tutorial github repository.
