DOI: 10.1080/01621459.2021.2013242
Abstract: Merging datafiles containing information on overlapping sets of entities is a challenging task in the absence of unique identifiers, and is further complicated when some entities are duplicated in the datafiles. Most approaches to this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/biostatistics/kxac016
Abstract: Understanding associations between injury severity and postacute care recovery for patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) is crucial to improving care. Estimating these associations requires information on patients' injury, demographics, and healthcare utilization, which are… read more here.
