Bi-Merge (String)

Description

Similar to block Merge, but also transports the strings in the second column of B to both outputs (A1 and A2). Finds all items in A for which the second column matches an object from B. Usually used to merge back objects which have previously been split.

Input

  • PAIRS [OBJ,OBJ]: a list of pairs to be matched
  • A [OBJ,STRING]: a list of pairs to be matched against PAIRS's first column
  • B [OBJ,STRING]: a list of pairs to be matched against PAIRS's second column

Output

  • A2B2 [STRING,STRING]: All the columns not involved in the match

Output scores can be aggregated and/or normalized.
