Customize Stop Lists
The IDOL PII Package post-processing script (see Configure Post Processing) uses stop lists to discard matches that are likely to be false positives. You can add entries to the stop lists, or remove entries, by modifying the following files.
-
scripts/address_stoplist.lua
contains a list of common words that are likely to indicate a false positive when returned as theSTREET
orCITY
component of an address match. -
scripts/names_stoplist.lua
contains two stop lists to discard names. In thestopnames
list, each component is plausible but the entire match is likely to be a false positive, for example "Christian Church" or "Norman Conquest". Thestopwords
list contains common words that are likely to indicate a false positive when returned as either theFORENAME
orSURNAME
component of a name match.You can customize the stop lists in this file such that a name can be considered a false positive in one country but not another.
