OffsetFusionFuzzy (Distance-Tolerant Fusion)

Idea

OffsetFusionFuzzy merges boundaries that are close in character space.

Useful when engines produce slightly misaligned offsets.

---

Method

1. Collect all boundaries.
2. Sort them.
3. Merge boundaries within max_distance characters.
4. Convert merged boundaries to segments.

---

Parameter

• max_distance: int (default: 1) Maximum character distance for merging.

---

Effect

• Tolerant to minor offset drift.
• Prevents fragmentation due to near-identical boundaries.

---

Recommended for

• LLM offset-based engines.
• Mixed statistical + LLM pipelines.
