[hardbyte]

Suggested addition of a privacy preserving record linkage software:

anonlink

A Python (and optimised C++) implementation of anonymous linkage using cryptographic linkage keys as described by Rainer Schnell, Tobias Bachteler, and Jörg Reiher in A Novel Error-Tolerant Anonymous Linking Code.

Comprised of two Python libraries:

• anonlink computes similarity scores, and/or best guess matches between two sets of cryptographic linkage keys.
• clkhash client library/tool for creating cryptographic linkage keys from personally identifiable data. [documentation]
