Abstract

See full text

A system maintains a plurality of names. The system generates cluster ids based on the names, and forms first clusters by grouping names having an equivalent cluster id. Then, for each cluster, and for each unique name in each cluster, the system keeps the unique name in the cluster when the unique name is similar to each other unique name in the cluster. The system can also receive a name entered by a user. The system generates a cluster id for the name entered by the user. The system retrieves a cluster having an equivalent cluster id as the cluster id of the name entered by the user. The system forms a construct that includes the name entered by the user and unique names in the retrieved cluster. The system searches for names within a population using the construct as search criteria.
