SEMANTIC MATCHING SYSTEM AND METHOD

A computer-based system and method for determining similarity between at least two heterogenous unstructured data records and for optimizing processing performance. A plurality of occupational data records is generated and, for each of the occupational data records, a respective vector is created to represent the occupational data record. Each of the vectors is sliced into a plurality of chunks. Thereafter, semantic matching of the chunks occurs in parallel, to compare at least one occupational data record to at least one other occupational data record simultaneously and substantially in real time. Thereafter, values representing similarities between at least two of the occupational data records are output.
