描述
Currently we are using the Jaro-Winkler distance on most of our Faker output to make sure that we do not replace the data with anything that could be similar to the original. (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaro%E2%80%93Winkler_distance) Code: https://github.com/smithoss/gonymizer/blob/master/processors.go#L220
I'm not even sure if this is the right one. I did some research when I first added this to the project, but after reviewing other algorithms, I found that others (based on Levenshtein distance as well) may be a better fit.
Also are these checks pointless since our string size is not the same except for the AlphaNumericScrambler?
