Re: [basex-talk] grouping by fuzzy match?

Gerrit has already mentioned fingerprinting techniques. If your time is limited, it may be sufficient to apply full-text tokenization and Soundex to your strings:

let $get-fuzzy-match-value := function($x) { $x => ft:tokenize(map { 'stemming': true() }) => distinct-values() => string-join() => strings:soundex() } for $x in //p group by $key := $get-fuzzy-match-value($x) return <similar-paragraphs key='{ $key }'>{ $x }</similar-paragraphs>

I shall certainly give this a try!

Thank you, Christian! I continue to be astonished by the power and utility of this tool you've built.
