Description : Python library for doing approximate and phonetic matching
of strings
It uses the following string comparison Algorithms
(it provides C and Python implementation):
* Levenshtein Distance
* Damerau-Levenshtein Distance
* Jaro Distance
* Jaro-Winkler Distance
* Match Rating Approach Comparison
* Hamming Distance
.
Supports the following phonetic encoding:
* American Soundex
* Metaphone
* NYSIIS (New York State Identification and Intelligence System)
* Match Rating Codex
It is a little library, but does its job.
I intend to maintain this package under the DPMT (which I am part of).
This package is a dependency for beets, #775719, which is lagging some
versions [1].
