require 'activerecord' require 'active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter' class Ofac # Accepts a hash with the identity's demographic information # # Ofac.new({:name => 'Oscar Hernandez', :city => 'Clearwater', :address => '123 somewhere ln'}) # # :name is required to get a score. If :name is missing, an error will not be thrown, but a score of 0 will be returned. # # The more information provided, the higher the score could be. A score of 100 would mean all fields # were passed in, and all fields were 100% matches. If only the name is passed in without an address, # it will be impossible to get a score of 100, even if the name matches perfectly. # # Acceptable hash keys and their weighting in score calculation: # # * :name (weighting = 60%) (required) This can be a person, business, or marine vessel # * :address (weighting = 10%) # * :city (weighting = 30%) def initialize(identity) @identity = identity end # Creates a score, 1 - 100, based on how well the name and address match the data on the # SDN (Specially Designated Nationals) list. # # The score is calculated by adding up the weightings of each part that is matched. So # if only name is matched, then the max score is the weight for :name which is 60 # # It's possible to get partial matches, which will add partial weight to the score. If there # is not a match on the element as it is passed in, then each word element gets broken down # and matches are tried on each partial element. The weighting is distrubuted equally for # each partial that is matched. # # If exact matches are not made, then a sounds like match is attempted. Any match made by sounds like # is given 75% of it's weight to the score. # # Example: # # If you are trying to match the name Kevin Tyll and there is a record for Smith, Kevin in the database, then # we will try to match both Kevin and Tyll separately, with each element Smith and Kevin. Since only Kevin # will find a match, and there were 2 elements in the searched name, the score will be added by half the weighting # for :name. So since the weight for :name is 60, then we will add 30 to the score. # # If you are trying to match the name Kevin Gregory Tyll and there is a record for Tyll, Kevin in the database, then # we will try to match Kevin and Gregory and Tyll separately, with each element Tyll and Kevin. Since both Kevin # and Tyll will find a match, and there were 3 elements in the searched name, the score will be added by 2/3 the weighting # for :name. So since the weight for :name is 60, then we will add 40 to the score. # # If you are trying to match the name Kevin Tyll and there is a record for Kevin Gregory Tyll in the database, then # we will try to match Kevin and Tyll separately, with each element Tyll and Kevin and Gregory. Since both Kevin # and Tyll will find a match, and there were 2 elements in the searched name, the score will be added by 2/2 the weighting # for :name. So since the weight for :name is 60, then we will add 60 to the score. # # If you are trying to match the name Kevin Tyll, and there is a record for Teel, Kevin in the database, then an exact match # will be found for Kevin, and a sounds like match will be made for Tyll. Since there were 2 elements in hte searched name, # and the weight for :name is 60, then each element is worth 30. Since Kevin was an exact match, it will add 30, and # since Tyll was a sounds like match, it will add 30 * .75. So the :name portion of the search will be worth 53. # # Matches for name are made for both the name and any aliases in the OFAC database. # # Matches for :city and :address will only be added to the score if there is first a match on :name. def score @score || calculate_score end # Returns an array of hashes of records in the OFAC data that found partial matches with that record's score. # # Ofac.new({:name => 'Oscar Hernandez', :city => 'Clearwater', :address => '123 somewhere ln'}).possible_hits #returns # [{:address=>"123 Somewhere Ln", :score=>100, :name=>"HERNANDEZ, Oscar|GUAMATUR, S.A.", :city=>"Clearwater"}, {:address=>"123 Somewhere Ln", :score=>100, :name=>"HERNANDEZ, Oscar|Alternate Name", :city=>"Clearwater"}] # def possible_hits @possible_hits || retrieve_possible_hits end private def retrieve_possible_hits score @possible_hits end def calculate_score unless @identity[:name].to_s == '' if OfacSdn.connection.kind_of?(ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::MysqlAdapter) #first get a list from the database of possible matches by name #this query is pretty liberal, we just want to get a list of possible #matches from the database that we can run through our ruby matching algorithm partial_name = @identity[:name].gsub!(/\W/,'|') name_array = partial_name.split('|') name_array.delete('') sql_name_partial = name_array.collect {|partial_name| "INSTR(SUBSTR(SOUNDEX(concat('O',name)), 2), REPLACE(SUBSTR(SOUNDEX('O#{partial_name}'), 2), '0', '')) > 0"}.join(' and ') sql_alt_name_partial = name_array.collect {|partial_name| "INSTR(SUBSTR(SOUNDEX(concat('O',alternate_identity_name)), 2), REPLACE(SUBSTR(SOUNDEX('O#{partial_name}'), 2), '0', '')) > 0"}.join(' and ') ##this sql for getting "accurate sounds like" functionality comes from: #http://jgeewax.wordpress.com/2006/07/21/efficient-sounds-like-searches-in-mysql/ possible_sdns = OfacSdn.connection.select_all("select concat(name,'|', alternate_identity_name) name, address, city from ofac_sdns where name is not null and (((#{sql_name_partial})) or ((#{sql_alt_name_partial})))") else possible_sdns = OfacSdn.find(:all, :select => 'name, alternate_identity_name, address, city').collect{|sdn| {:name => "#{sdn.name}|#{sdn.alternate_identity_name}", :address => sdn.address, :city => sdn.city}} end match = OfacMatch.new({:name => {:weight => 60, :token => "#{@identity[:name]}"}, :address => {:weight => 10, :token => @identity[:address]}, :city => {:weight => 30, :token => @identity[:city]}}) score = match.score(possible_sdns) @possible_hits = match.possible_hits end @score = score || 0 return @score end end
