Hey Dimitre,

Not bad -- for the advanced student, again.

"Identification" or "unique identification" might be better for beginners.
Then I think

"id-factorisation"

or just

"factorisation"
(because we know what kind of factorisation takes place) is better
than de-duplication.

Except for the part about having to explain it to everyone.... :-)

Honestly, if it were me (assuming I even decided to fight that battle) I would also always say "commonly called 'deduplication'", or something similar, to signal most readers that I was, in fact, just using a specialized term to describe something they already know about.

Cheers,
Wendell
