A component to do fuzzy matching

See original GitHub issue

What problem are you trying to solve?

I want synonyms to work even if there are typos in it.

For example, given:

nlu:

  • synonym: credit examples: |
  • credit card account
  • credit account

If DIETClassifier extracts credit acount, I want it to be normalized to credit.

The current workaround is to add all typos to the examples:

nlu:

  • synonym: credit examples: |
  • credit card account
  • credit account
  • credit acount

What’s your suggested solution?

A component that can match a value to the examples in a synonym based on stemming, misspellings, and partial matches and returns a score.

@TyDunn the work @koaning did was taipo. It does data augmentation but does not handle normalization.
