Recommended Usage

Hybrid deduper, where a single incoming record can quickly be evaluated independently against each record in an existing large master database.
Batch processes where NGRAM is set on a single non-first matchcode component.
Databases created with abbreviations or similar word substitutions.
Multi word field data where a trailing word does not appear in every record in the expected group or data contains acceptable variations of one of the keywords.

Not Recommended For

Databases where the number of errors with relation to the string length result is a small number of common substrings.
Gather/scatter, survivorship, or record consolidation of sensitive data.
Quantifiable data or records with proprietary keywords not associated in our knowledgebase tables.

Do Not Use With

UTF-8 data. This algorithm was ported to MatchUp with the assumption that a character equals one byte, and therefore results may not be accurate if the data contains multi-byte characters.
