Konfhub Conference API Tweaking Program [TASK] 🛠️

An API (which provides the list of upcoming technical conferences) tweaker program written in python which performs following tasks:

• Extract contents from given Api link

• Print the contents in a human readable format, e.g.: “San Antonio CyberSecurity Conference”, November 6th, 2019, San Antonio, TX, US, Paid. https://futureconevents.com/events/san-antonio/”

  

• Identify exact duplicates (if any)

  

• Identify semantic duplicates (i.e., the conferences are same but the details provided are slightly different, e.g., “React Conference 2019” in one entry and “ReactConf ‘19” in another entry but the other fields are same or similar).

  

Tasks Status

• Task1 ✔️

• Task2 ✔️

• Task3 ✓✓....

    Task 3 is partly completed. Semantic duplicates are extracted
    with complete accuracy when implemented in NLP which is out of scope
    for this task. Therefore, python library fuzzywuzzy is
    used here for getting better results.
  

  • fuzzywuzzy has 4 types, FuzzyWuzzyRatio FuzzyWuzzy PartialRatio FuzzyWuzzyTokenSortRatio and FuzzyWuzzyWRatio.
  • Among these four, FuzzyWuzzyRatio produces descent result for this particular api with ratio>=71.
