Jaro-Winkler Distance Algorithm in .NET

Is there any LGPL or commercial-friendly licensed implementation of Jaro-Winkler distance in .NET?

Solution

  • The SimMetrics library appears to support Jaro-Winkler, and there's a .NET version available for download.

    Unfortunately it's licensed under the GPL, but maybe the authors would be amenable to giving/selling you a commercial license.

    (NB: I haven't used this library myself, and know absolutely nothing about it.)
