Mainly, the idea is the linkage between records of different databases, which make reference to the same individuals. In this paper we introduce a new parametrized variation of record linkage relying on the Mahalanobis distance, and a supervised learning method to determine the optimum simulated covariance matrix for the linkage process. We evaluate and compare our proposal with other studied parametrized and not parametrized variations of record linkage, such as weighted mean or the Choquet integral, which determines the optimal fuzzy measure. http://agop2011.ciselab.org/proceedings
