Describe the issue
A new algorithm for detecting similarity between numeric values. Example:
When a SSN is populated, it can be in one of two formats. One with dashes and one without (eg. 123-45-6789 vs 123456789).
A combination of Numeric and Levenshtein algorithms can be used to remove dashes before measuring similarity.
