在文化日益多元化的今天，人们越来越需要了解少数民族的性质和详细构成--S。族裔分类经常引起激烈的争论，但分类的质量和可获得性产生了更大的问题，对我们有意义地划分人口的能力产生了连锁反应。姓名分析和分类被认为是在没有族裔数据的情况下实现这种细分的一种有效方法，而且可能特别适用于公共卫生和人口统计应用。然而，以前的姓名分析方法是为了识别一个或一小部分少数族裔，而不是整个人口。这篇工作论文提出了一种新的方法，使用姓氏和名字将英国人口和社区划分为共同起源的群体。它提出了一个新的种族本体论，它结合了它的一些多维方面：语言、宗教、地理区域和文化。它使用在非常精细的时间和空间尺度上收集的数据，并在个人层面上在受到保障的情况下提供。根据姓名的可能来源，这些人被分为185个独立分配的文化、种族和语言(CEL)群体类别。我们包括对种族进行分类的必要性的理由，建议的CEL分类法，描述CEL分类是如何建立和应用的，初步的外部验证，以及当前和潜在应用的一些例子。
There are growing needs to understand the nature and detailed composition of ethnicgroups in today?s increasingly multicultural societies. Ethnicity classifications areoften hotly contested, but still greater problems arise from the quality and availabilityof classifications, with knock on consequences for our ability meaningfully tosubdivide populations. Name analysis and classification has been proposed as oneefficient method of achieving such subdivisions in the absence of ethnicity data, andmay be especially pertinent to public health and demographic applications. However,previous approaches to name analysis have been designed to identify one or a smallnumber of ethnic minorities, and not complete populations.This working paper presents a new methodology to classify the UK population andneighbourhoods into groups of common origin using surnames and forenames. Itproposes a new ontology of ethnicity that combines some of its multidimensionalfacets; language, religion, geographical region, and culture. It uses data collected atvery fine temporal and spatial scales, and made available, subject to safeguards, at thelevel of the individual. Such individuals are classified into 185 independentlyassigned categories of Cultural Ethnic and Linguistic (CEL) groups, based on theprobable origins of names. We include a justification for the need of classifyingethnicity, a proposed CEL taxonomy, a description of how the CEL classification wasbuilt and applied, a preliminary external validation, and some examples of current andpotential applications.
