DQM function 258 dynamically determines the gender associated
with an incoming UMF name and generates an <ATTRIBUTE> tag
to include the associated gender with the UMF record.
DQM function 258 supersedes the gender functionality of DQM
255 (the Gender Characteristic Type parameter).
Parameters
Gender can add confirmation weight or denial weight to name
scoring to determine if two identities are the same entity. Examples:
- In Anglo cultures, "Patricia" is female, while "Patrick" is male
- In Arabic cultures, "Karim" is male, while "Karima" is female.
This function does not have any correction procedures.
- Minimum Gender Confidence Score
- Determines the minimum score that a name must meet or exceed before
a gender is assigned and the <ATTRIBUTE> UMF tag
is added to the UMF record.
- A valid value is an integer between 0 and 100.
- The default score is 90, which means that
gender determination has a 90% confidence rate in the gender assignment.
Be cautious about lowering this minimum score threshold, because scores
lower than 90 impact how entities are resolved during gender confirmation
or denial.
