Even in its most basic form, entity resolution (ER) has many moving parts that must be fit together correctly in order to obtain accurate and consistent results. The functions and features that are assembled to support the different phases of the CSRUD Life Cycle are called EIIM configurations. The focus of this chapter is on the configurations ...
