Omeda Wins Top Tier Name Matching Position at MITRE Challenge™

Omatch Software Declared One of the Best Among 140 Worldwide Competitors

Omeda, a leading provider of integrated database solutions, announced that its Omatch identity resolution software was awarded a Top Tier Vendor position in the MITRE Challenge™ for Multicultural Name Matching.

Developed by the MITRE Corporation, a not-for-profit corporation chartered to work solely in the public interest, the Challenge is an open competition to encourage innovation in technologies of interest to the federal government. Omeda was among nearly 140 teams from around the world competing to determine the top identity matching technologies as part of MITRE's ongoing research.

Omeda's powerful Omatch identity resolution software utilizes all available data elements in determining the identity of an individual, and specific name matching algorithms of the Omatch software were used for the MITRE Challenge™. As one of the top ten participants, Omeda was invited to present at a Technical Exchange Meeting at MITRE's McLean, Virginia facilities on October 5, 2011.

"We're extremely pleased that Omeda's Omatch software was recognized as a Top Tier winner," said Aaron Oberman, President & COO. "Since we continuously combine data from many disparate sources as part of our integrated database approach, it's critical that we provide superior name matching, de-duplication, and consolidation of information for each individual record. It's exciting to have our name matching processes validated in this competition."
