DATA NORMALIZATION SYSTEM

Abstract:

A data normalization system receives a first string and a second string that are ordered according to an initial string ordering. The data normalization system analyzes, the first string and the second string based on a list of known character sets included in surnames, yielding an analysis, and determines, based on the analysis, that a set of characters in the second string matches a known character set included in the list of known character sets included in surnames. In response to determining that the set of characters in the second string matches a known character set included in the list of known character sets included in surname, the data normalization system orders the first string and the second string according to an updated string ordering.
