Duplicate-Recognition

This Project uses the calculation of similarities scores of a set of entities in an edge list. To allow for versatile usage, it uses dependency injection to implement it into any application.

Usage

You need to implement all the read/write methods, to keep the project versatile.

For an example on how to use it, see the example, or the following code block:

"""
This is an example implementation of the DuplicateRecognition class.
It won't work. It's just to show, how it could be used.
