You've hit the nail on the head once again. Try as they might, vendors of simple math-based matching software do not qualify as identity or entity resolution solutions. Only an engine with an extensive library of algorithms, coupled with non-obvious relationship analysis and rules/decision processing can form a solution. Thank you for correctly pointing out that, when it comes to true identity resolution, the 'math' simply doesn't add up. Great post, Dan. You’ve hit the nail on the head once again.
