This has resulted in the development of numerous algorithms and systems for these techniques in recent years. The goal of this publication is to provide an overview of these numerous data linkage techniques. Most papers deal with record linkage and structured data. Processing unstructured data through entity linking is rising attention with the trend Big Data. Currently, deep learning algorithms are being explored for both linkage techniques. Most publications focus their research on a single process step or the entire process of ”entity linking” or ”record linkage”. However, the papers have the limitation that the used approaches and techniques have always been optimized for only a few data sources.11 pagesengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalData, Text, and Web Mining for Business Analyticsbig data integrationdata scienceentity linkinglinkage techniquesrecord linkageConference Paper10.24251/HICSS.2020.132
