| pythainlp.soundex |
| ================= |
| The :class:`pythainlp.soundex` module provides soundex algorithms for the Thai language. Soundex is a phonetic algorithm used to encode words or names into a standardized representation based on their pronunciation, making it useful for tasks like name matching and search. |
|
|
| Modules |
| ------- |
|
|
| soundex |
| ~~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: soundex |
|
|
| The `soundex` function is a basic Soundex algorithm for the Thai language. It encodes a Thai word into a Soundex code, allowing for approximate matching of words with similar pronunciation. |
|
|
| lk82 |
| ~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: lk82 |
|
|
| The `lk82` module implements the Thai Soundex algorithm proposed by Vichit Lorchirachoonkul in 1982. This module is suitable for encoding Thai words into Soundex codes for phonetic comparisons. |
|
|
| udom83 |
| ~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: udom83 |
|
|
| The `udom83` module is based on a homonymic approach for sound-alike string search. It encodes Thai words using the Wannee Udompanich Soundex algorithm developed in 1983. |
|
|
| metasound |
| ~~~~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: metasound |
|
|
| The `metasound` module implements a novel phonetic name matching algorithm with a statistical ontology for analyzing names based on Thai astrology. It offers advanced phonetic matching capabilities for Thai names. |
|
|
| prayut_and_somchaip |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: prayut_and_somchaip |
|
|
| The `prayut_and_somchaip` module is designed for Thai-English cross-language transliterated word retrieval using the Soundex technique. It is particularly useful for matching transliterated words in both languages. |
|
|
| pythainlp.soundex.sound.word_approximation |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: pythainlp.soundex.sound.word_approximation |
|
|
| The `pythainlp.soundex.sound.word_approximation` module offers word approximation functionality. It allows users to find Thai words that are phonetically similar to a given word. |
|
|
| pythainlp.soundex.sound.audio_vector |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: pythainlp.soundex.sound.audio_vector |
|
|
| The `pythainlp.soundex.sound.audio_vector` module provides audio vector functionality for Thai words. It allows users to work with audio vectors based on phonetic properties. |
|
|
| pythainlp.soundex.sound.word2audio |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| .. autofunction:: pythainlp.soundex.sound.word2audio |
|
|
| The `pythainlp.soundex.sound.word2audio` module is designed for converting Thai words to audio representations. It enables users to obtain audio vectors for Thai words, which can be used for various applications. |
