  • 1.  Relevance based matching score dependent on fuzzy matching

    Posted 01-21-2022 11:10
    Hi all, 


    if you are interested you can vote the following idea (MDM-I-1066):
    https://reltio.ideas.aha.io/ideas/MDM-I-1066

    In Relevance based matching rule it should be able to have a matching score dependent on how 2 strings fuzzy match between them.

    Example : "Charles" and "Carles" may have a matching score of 80 whereas

    "Charles" and "Briles" may have a matching score of 20


    Thanks and have a great week end!
    Manuel

    Hi Manuel,

    Would you please expand on the idea?  Depending on the comparator used, the two strings will give different matching scores.  This can be seen https://docs.reltio.com/matchmerge/relevancematching.html#relevancematching__scorecalc.  So I think you are trying to say something else, but I am missing it.

    Hi Gino, thanks for your remark.

    My idea is to have different score values depending on how much 2 strings fuzzy match together.
    I don't want only to know if 2 strings fuzzy match together (true or false) and assign a fixed weight to them.

    I want to have a variable score value depending on how much the strings are similar, as there are several "flavours" of fuzzy matching. 

    I am not sure to express the requirement clearly enough, maybe @Chris Detzel can help me as we have discussed together about this idea during the Relevance Based Matching Community shof of January 20th.

    Thanks Manuel,

    As I understand it, Relevance-Based Matching will return such a calculation.  See https://docs.reltio.com/matchmerge/relevancematching.html#relevancematching__scorecalc where it says:

    The relevance is in the range of 0 to 1. For example, BasicStringComparator returns 0 if two values are different. It returns 1 if two values are the identical. Fractional values can be a result of DistinctWordsComparator or other comparators.

    As I read that, depending on the comparator, Relevance-Based matching will give you a value between 0 and 1 depending how close the strings are.  Isn't that what you are looking for?

    Thanks Gino, I read the doc but I have understood differently.
    Let me do some tests and I will come back to you.
