Crate strsim

This library implements string similarity metrics.

Enums

• StrSimError

Functions

• damerau_levenshtein
  Like optimal string alignment, but substrings can be edited an unlimited number of times, and the triangle inequality holds.
• generic_damerau_levenshtein
  Like optimal string alignment, but substrings can be edited an unlimited number of times, and the triangle inequality holds.
• generic_hamming
  Calculates the number of positions in the two sequences where the elements differ. Returns an error if the sequences have different lengths.
• generic_jaro
  Calculates the Jaro similarity between two sequences. The returned value is between 0.0 and 1.0 (higher value means more similar).
• generic_jaro_winkler
  Like Jaro but gives a boost to sequences that have a common prefix.
• generic_levenshtein
  Calculates the minimum number of insertions, deletions, and substitutions required to change one sequence into the other.
• hamming
  Calculates the number of positions in the two strings where the characters differ. Returns an error if the strings have different lengths.
• jaro
  Calculates the Jaro similarity between two strings. The returned value is between 0.0 and 1.0 (higher value means more similar).
• jaro_winkler
  Like Jaro but gives a boost to strings that have a common prefix.
• levenshtein
  Calculates the minimum number of insertions, deletions, and substitutions required to change one string into the other.
• normalized_damerau_levenshtein
  Calculates a normalized score of the Damerau–Levenshtein algorithm between 0.0 and 1.0 (inclusive), where 1.0 means the strings are the same.
• normalized_levenshtein
  Calculates a normalized score of the Levenshtein algorithm between 0.0 and 1.0 (inclusive), where 1.0 means the strings are the same.
• osa_distance
  Like Levenshtein but allows for adjacent transpositions. Each substring can only be edited once.
• sorensen_dice
  Calculates a Sørensen-Dice similarity distance using bigrams. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%B8rensen%E2%80%93Dice_coefficient.
