Data linkage, especially between databases with a large number of records, is facilitated when each record in the dataset is unambiguously identified by a single numeric identifier such as a social insurance number.
This may include information related to you that can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identifier such as an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to your physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity.
A citation should include the following elements: author (or authoring entity), title (possibly a generic title), a date (or formal database version, if available), a persistent identifier (such as a DOI), and some form of fixity information (that can be used to validate data retrieved later).
The state table is simply a mapping from a unique InP identifier (such as an IP address), to an EmbeddingId for the latest EmbeddingState object for the flow at the given InP.
All data has been pseudonymised, which means that anyone included in the model has their name replaced with a unique identifier such as a string of digits.
It is thus necessary to link all events to the same individual by a unique identifier such as a personal identification number.
Overall a universal identifier – such as a personal health insurance number-linking all administrative and research databases would seem preferable.
The tool allows the user to retrieve and save a persistent identifier (such as a DOI) for their dataset from their chosen repository.
Additionally, for any specific protein, users can quickly retrieve all protein properties measured so far by providing a protein identifier, such as a Uniprot ID.
However, many surveys employ a study identifier, such as a study number, that is used to track responses and manage reminders.
