商品描述

A comprehensive compilation of new developments in data linkage methodology

 

The increasing availability of large administrative databases has led to a dramatic rise in the use of data linkage, yet the standard texts on linkage are still those which describe the seminal work from the 1950-60s, with some updates. Linkage and analysis of data across sources remains problematic due to lack of discriminatory and accurate identifiers, missing data and regulatory issues. Recent developments in data linkage methodology have concentrated on bias and analysis of linked data, novel approaches to organising relationships between databases and privacy-preserving linkage.

 

Methodological Developments in Data Linkage brings together a collection of contributions from members of the international data linkage community, covering cutting edge methodology in this field. It presents opportunities and challenges provided by linkage of large and often complex datasets, including analysis problems, legal and security aspects, models for data access and the development of novel research areas.  New methods for handling uncertainty in analysis of linked data, solutions for anonymised linkage and alternative models for data collection are also discussed.

 

Key Features:

 

  • Presents cutting edge methods for a topic of increasing importance to a wide range of research areas, with applications to data linkage systems internationally

 

  • Covers the essential issues associated with data linkage today

 

  • Includes examples based on real data linkage systems, highlighting the opportunities, successes and challenges that the increasing availability of linkage data provides

 

  • Novel approach incorporates technical aspects of both linkage, management and analysis of linked data

 

 

This book will be of core interest to academics, government employees, data holders, data managers, analysts and statisticians who use administrative data. It will also appeal to researchers in a variety of areas, including epidemiology, biostatistics, social statistics, informatics, policy and public health.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《資料連結方法學的全面彙編》是一本關於資料連結方法學最新發展的綜合性著作。

隨著大型行政資料庫的日益普及,資料連結的使用也急劇增加,然而目前關於連結的標準文獻仍然是描述1950-60年代的開創性工作,並有一些更新。由於缺乏具有區分性和準確性的識別符、缺失數據和監管問題,跨來源的資料連結和分析仍然存在問題。資料連結方法學的最新發展集中在連結數據的偏差和分析、在數據庫之間組織關係的新方法以及保護隱私的連結等方面。

《資料連結方法學的方法學發展》匯集了國際資料連結社區成員的一系列貢獻,涵蓋了這一領域的尖端方法。它介紹了連結大型且常常複雜的數據集所提供的機會和挑戰,包括分析問題、法律和安全方面的問題、數據訪問模型以及新興研究領域的發展。還討論了處理連結數據分析中的不確定性的新方法、匿名連結的解決方案以及數據收集的替代模型。

主要特點包括:
- 提供了對於各種研究領域越來越重要的尖端方法,並應用於國際資料連結系統
- 詳細介紹了當今資料連結所涉及的重要問題
- 通過基於真實資料連結系統的實例,突出了連結數據的機會、成功和挑戰
- 新方法結合了連結、管理和分析連結數據的技術方面

這本書對於學術界、政府員工、資料持有者、資料管理人員、分析師和統計學家等使用行政數據的人士具有核心興趣。同時,它也對流行病學、生物統計學、社會統計學、信息學、政策和公共衛生等各個領域的研究人員具有吸引力。
