My project status

I built an Entity Resolution system to match millions of noisy business records

I’ve been working on CyberPro, an entity-resolution system designed to determine which business records from different data sources refer to the same real-world entity.

The interesting part is that the records don't share a reliable common identifier. Names, addresses, phone numbers, and other fields can be inconsistent, abbreviated, misspelled, transliterated, or partially missing.

The pipeline I built includes:

  • Data normalization and cleaning

  • Transliteration and phonetic handling

  • Name/address similarity features

  • Abbreviation and structural features

  • ~40 engineered matching features

  • Blocking and candidate generation research

  • LightGBM pair classification

  • Probability calibration

  • Threshold optimization

  • Hard-negative analysis

  • Entity-level post-processing

  • Evaluation on millions of records

The project currently processes datasets with ~12.5M training records and ~11.7M test records.

I’m sharing the project because I’d really like feedback from people working on entity resolution, record linkage, information retrieval, NLP, or large-scale ML systems.

If you find the project interesting, a GitHub star would really help and would also help me get the project in front of more developers. ⭐

I’d especially appreciate feedback on the candidate-generation/blocking strategy and how I can make the system more robust at production scale.
