    Convert the original lines to full furigana and do a fuzzy match. (For reference, the original line is 貴方がこれまでに得てきた力、存分に発揮してくださいね。) You can do a regional search using the initial scene data (E60) first, and if the confidence is low, go for a slower full search.

  • The Levenshtein Distance in Production

    I used fuzzywuzzy [1], a python-based fuzzy string matching calculator that is based on Levenshtein's edit-distance for a parking enforcement product I built.

    The product used an iOS client to capture license plates. The app would capture a single plate many times, de-duplicate using an edit-distance threshold matching plates up to a time period lookback. Then among those plates, send the one with the highest likely correct read up to the server.

    The web app would look to see if that plate had been seen before or a plate similar had been seen before. If so, it would join a "plate group" which let you see the history of vehicle sightings.

    A set of rules could be created to show vehicle in violation of a posted parking time limit. It worked when a person on patrol walked the lot twice and the app saw the "same" vehicle (thanks to edit distance)

    I had Cummings Properties in New England and National Cathedral in DC as customers, but sold the product last year.

    I wrote some about Vladimir Losifovich Levenshtein in a final blog entry high level blog entry about edit distance. There's a 2002 photo of Levenshtein at a conference if you're curious. [2]
