Fuzzy string matching

import bionty as bt

cell_type_bionty = bt.CellType()

cell_type_bionty.fuzzy_match("T cells", cell_type_bionty.name)

By default, fuzzy_match also matches against synonyms:

cell_type_bionty.fuzzy_match("P cell", cell_type_bionty.name)

You can turn off synonym matching with synonyms_field=None:

cell_type_bionty.fuzzy_match("P cell", cell_type_bionty.name, synonyms_field=None)

Return all results ranked by matching ratios:

cell_type_bionty.fuzzy_match(
    "P cell", cell_type_bionty.name, return_ranked_results=True
).head()

Tied results will all be returns:

cell_type_bionty.fuzzy_match("A cell", cell_type_bionty.name, synonyms_field=None)
