confusion function

Get confusion table for fastLink objects

Calculate confusion table after running fastLink().

confusion(object, threshold)

Arguments

• object: A 'fastLink' object or list of fastLink objects. Can only be run if 'return.all = TRUE' in 'fastLink().'
• threshold: The matching threshold above which a pair is a true match. Default is .85

Returns

'confusion()' returns two tables - one calculating the confusion table, and another calculating a series of additional summary statistics.

Examples

## Not run:

 out <- fastLink(
 dfA = dfA, dfB = dfB,
 varnames = c("firstname", "middlename", "lastname"),
 stringdist.match = c("firstname", "middlename", "lastname"),
 partial.match = c("firstname", "lastname", "streetname"),
 return.all = TRUE)

 ct <- confusion(out)
## End(Not run)
