This chart shows how the partial match weights in a Splink linker.match_weights_chart
(see here) are related to Bayes Factors and probabilities.
Hover over the chart below to select a match weight.
Caveat: the 'probability' is really only defined if a prior exists. For the above chart, the prior is assumed to be 50%.
Also check the match weight calculator to more precisely calculate match weights, probabilities, and Bayes factors.
