  • Patent number: 12639626
    Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for matching two strings together. The process can identify differences between the two strings, store values representing the differences between the two strings in a vector and compare the vectorized string difference values to each other using machine learning. In one example, a method may include receiving a request to compare a source string and a target string, generating a vector and encoding attributes within the vector, wherein the attributes comprise editing steps for converting the source string into the target string, determining whether the source string is a match to the target string via execution of a machine learning model on the generated vector with the attributes encoded therein, and storing a determination output of the machine learning model in memory.
