Blocklib
Python implementations of record linkage blocking techniques. Blocking is a technique that makes record linkage scalable. It is achieved by partitioning datasets into groups, called blocks and only comparing records in corresponding blocks. This can reduce the number of comparisons that need to be conducted to find which pairs of records should be linked.
blocklib is part of the Anonlink project for privacy preserving record linkage.
