abstract = "Entities often hold more than one representation with
some expressive errors in different data sources in the
real world. Different representations and a few
possible expressive errors make entities identifying a
crucial task in data integration and data cleaning,
which is known as entity resolution. We propose a novel
approach for entity resolution using genetic
programming named Entity Resolution with Genetic
Programming (ERGP). ERGP is able to learn to get an
effective entity resolution classifier by combining
several different properties' comparisons. The
evaluation shows that ERGP outperforms the
state-of-the-art entity resolution algorithms. Above
all the ERGP approach is capable of setting the
threshold for each single comparison of an attributes'
pair, leaving no burden of setting thresholds to the
user.",
