All Implemented Interfaces:

DrillFunc, DrillSimpleFunc

Enclosing class:

StringDistanceFunctions

public static class StringDistanceFunctions.JaroDistanceFunction
extends Object
implements DrillSimpleFunc

A similarity algorithm indicating the percentage of matched characters between two character sequences.

The Jaro measure is the weighted sum of percentage of matched characters from each file and transposed characters. Winkler increased this measure for matching initial characters.

This implementation is based on the Jaro Winkler similarity algorithm from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaro–Winkler_distance

Usage: SELECT jaro_distance( string1, string2 ) FROM...
