Original Kurzfassung:
Systems supporting situation awareness typically deal with
a vast stream of information about a large number of real-world objects
anchored in time and space provided by multiple sources. These
sources are often characterized by frequent updates, heterogeneous formats
and most crucial, identical, incomplete and often even contradictory
information. In this respect, duplicate detection methods are of
paramount importance allowing to explore whether or not information
having, e. g., different origins or different observation times concern one
and the same real-world object. Although many such duplicate detection
methods have been proposed in literature - each of them having different
origins, pursuing different goals and often, by nature, being heavily
domain-specific - the unique characteristics of situation awareness and
their implications on the method's applicability were not the focus up
to now. This paper examines existing duplicate detection methods appearing
to be suitable in the area of situation awareness and identifies
their strengths and shortcomings. As a prerequisite, based on a motivating
case study in the domain of road traffic management, an evaluation
framework is suggested, which categorizes the major requirements on
duplicate detection methods with regard to situation awareness.
