从datafram中删除类似的字符串重复项

Question

我有一个df，现在看起来像这样：

Car Name      Number
Adam Leaf     9
Adamm Leaf    9
Adam Lea      NaN
Adam-Leaf     NaN
Adam/Leaf     9
Claire-Green  NaN
Cliare Green  3
Claire Green  3
Claire Gren   NaN
Claire/Green  3

我正在尝试删除这些变体以实现类似的效果

Car Name      Number
Adam Leaf     9
Claire Green  3

Answer 1

这里有一条从jellyfish

import jellyfish

s=df.groupby(df['Car Name'].apply(jellyfish.soundex)).first()
              Car Name  Number
Car Name                      
A354         Adam Leaf     9.0
C462      Claire-Green     3.0

Answer 2

这可以通过计算Levenshtein距离来解决，甚至可以更好地使用fuzzyfuzzy库
