^aSimMetrics API is a Java library that includes such string metrics as Jaccard, Jaro-Winkler and N-gram

^bWS4J (WordNet Similarity for Java) is a Java API containing string metrics like Wu-Palmer, Jiang-Conrath and Lin

^cSecondString library is a package containing string metrics such as Edit-Distance, Jaro, TF-IDF

^dDamerau-Levenshtein is a variant of Edit-distance that adds adjacent symbols’ transpositions into the distance measures
