Abstract
Techniques are described herein for address matching from a single address string to an address matching score. In an embodiment, an address string is received and parsed into parsed address data. Once an address string is parsed into parsed address data, the parsed address data is standardized by converting the parsed address data into a standard format and replacing abbreviations, colloquial names with formal names. Once an address string has been standardized into a standardized street locale, candidate addresses that are identical to or similar to the standardized street locale are identified and are assigned a score. Each score comprises a probability that the respective candidate address and the standardized street locale represent a same place or location.
