Correlating weighted data between different data sources

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if there were any available open source software that helps correlating data based on specified values with weights.

I am working on a project were we have many different data sources that can sometimes be incorrect due to clerical errors. To correlate the data, we will associate weights to certain fields that will calculate how likely it the data relates together. The data will take into account the difference between the data and see how likely it was a clerical error rather than a actual different source.

What I have tried:

Should there not be, I would be interested in creating an open source solution that can accomplish this. I just didn't want to re-invent the wheel if it already existed.

Thanks

P.S if anyone feels like they might have seen this question before, I posted on SO yesterday, but I only got downvotes and no comments so if I'm breaking some kinda forum etiquette feel free to let me know.

I guess you could search for a C# statistical library, see, for instance c# - What is a good statistical math package for .Net? - Stack Overflow[^].
You could also opt for using a statistical oriented programming language, like R[^].
Finally, if you like scripting then you may find many statistical libraries available for Python.

Personally, I think it is their fault, not yours.
