Abstract

A computer-implemented method for generating hash values to determine string similarity is disclosed. The computer-implemented method includes converting a first text string of a first data set into a first set of shingles. The computer-implemented method further includes determining a weight associated with each shingle in the first set of shingles based, at least in part, on a particular record field associated with a shingle. The computer-implemented method further includes generating, based on a hash function, a hash value for each shingle in the first set of shingles. The computer-implemented method further includes reducing the hash value generated for each shingle in the first set of shingles, based, at least in part on the weight associated with the shingle.
