Abstract :
Record linkage is one of the existing matching algorithms. Its goal is to link those records that while belonging to two different files, contain information of the same algorithm. Such algorithms are used for different purposes. One of them is to measure disclosure risk. In this paper we propose a few methods to evaluate such algorithms, some of them based on fuzzy clustering.
