Boosting the Quality of Approximate String Matching by Synonyms
2015
ACM Transactions on Database Systems
A string-similarity measure quantifies the similarity between two text strings for approximate string matching or comparison. For example, the strings "Sam" and "Samuel" can be considered to be similar. Most existing work that computes the similarity of two strings only considers syntactic similarities, for example, number of common words or q-grams. While this is indeed an indicator of similarity, there are many important cases where syntactically-different strings can represent the same
