Build Status

java-string-similarity that calculates a normalized distance or similarity score between two strings. A score of 0.0 means that the two strings are absolutely dissimilar, and 1.0 means that absolutely similar (or equal). Anything in between indicates how similar each the two strings are.

Example

In this simple example, we want to calculate a similarity score between the words McDonalds and MacMahons. We are selecting the Jaro-Winkler distance algorithm algorithm.

SimilarityStrategy strategy = new JaroWinklerStrategy();
String target = "McDonalds";
String source = "MacMahons";
StringSimilarityService service = new StringSimilarityServiceImpl(strategy);
double score = service.score(source, target); // Score is 0.90
