Abstract
Techniques for Chinese name matching are described. A Chinese name is received and is romanized into a Mandarin Pinyin representation. The Mandarin Pinyin representation of the Chinese name is matched against a set of Romanized Chinese names originating from several different Chinese character names. In response to finding a potential match between the Mandarin Pinyin representation and Romanized Chinese name, the original Chinese script for the Romanized Chinese name is retrieved. A native script comparison is applied between the received Chinese name and the original Chinese script for the Romanized Chinese name to obtain a match score. The native script comparison includes character-by-character comparison, character variant look-up, and/or consideration of name component misalignments. The obtained match score is used as a filter to reduce false positives that are generated in the matching of the Mandarin Pinyin representation against the set of Romanized Chinese names.
