human_name_compare PyPI version

the Problem:

Check if Dr. Peter Müller and Peter K. Müller and Dr. med. Peter Karsten Müller and P. Müller indicate if its the same person

There are gazillion tiny bits and pieces which makes this trivial task hard e.g.:

  • "R. Schönthal" "Robert Schönthal" - the only have initials on one side
  • "Erik Schönthal" "Robert Schönthal" - the firstname name doesnt match
  • "Robert Erik Schönthal" "Robert Peter Schönthal" - the middle name doesnt match
  • "Robert-Erik Schönthal" "Robert Erik Schönthal" - we have an "-" in our firstnames
  • "Robeert Schönthal" "Robert Schönthal" - the firstname has a typo
  • "Robert Müller" "Robert Schönthal" - the lastname doesnt match
  • "Herr Robert Müller" "Dr. med. Robert Schönthal" - we have some prefixes

and so on...
