Clustering
Introduction
Clustering is an extension of the Matching module that enables users to merge multiple entities into a single, global entity view within the Accurids system.
Users with the CONTRIBUTOR
or ADMIN
roles will see a merge icon that indicates the number of found proposals. These users can review the proposals, assess the matches identified by the proposal service, and proceed to merge the entities if appropriate.
Merging and Unmerging
Users can merge entities based on the proposals provided by the system, creating a unified global entity view that consolidates the properties of the matched entities into a single screen.
If necessary, users also have the option to unmerge entities, reverting them back to their original, distinct states.
Merging
To merge entities, click the "Accept proposal" button.
Unmerging
To unmerge entities, click the "Unmerge entity" button.
