Abstract

Entity resolution, the task of identifying and consolidating records that pertain to the same real-world entity, plays a pivotal role in various sectors such as e-commerce, healthcare, and law enforcement. The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) like GPT-4 has introduced a new dimension to this task, leveraging their advanced linguistic capabilities. This paper explores the potential of LLMs in the entity resolution process, shedding light on both their advantages and the computational complexities associated with large-scale matching. We introduce strategies for the efficient utilization of LLMs, including the selection of an optimal set of matching questions, namely MQsSP, which is proved to be a NP-hard problem. Our approach optimally chooses the most effective matching questions while keep consumption limited to your budget . Additionally, we propose a method to adjust the distribution of possible partitions after receiving responses from LLMs, with the goal of reducing the uncertainty of entity resolution. We evaluate the effectiveness of our approach using entropy as a metric, and our experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed methods, offering promising prospects for real-world applications.
