Abstract
Record matching is the method of identifying records that denote the similar real world entity or item . The record matching method is helpful for matching health care data . Many problems occur while linking medical records from various databases. Comparing these medical data to other data is challenging because even small mistakes, for example data entry errors and lacking data. The earlier research proposed that estimate field matching represent a technique to solve the issue by finding similar string values in several representations. In our proposed system, we are proposing the Neural network based matching patient records in multiple databases. We can enhance the performance of the record matching method by introducing the Neural network approach. This technique is can improve the overall performance of the system. Among many Neural network techniques, we are using the Elman Back propagation network technique.
