Phonetic Algorithm
The New York State Identification and Intelligence System Phonetic Code, commonly known as NYSIIS, is a phonetic algorithm devised in 1970 as part of the New York State Identification and Intelligence System (now a part of the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services). It features an accuracy increase of 2.7% over the traditional Soundex algorithm. Because of the change of ownership, the algorithm is henceforth to be known as NYSDCJS. Pronounce that however you will!
