Anonymisation

Anonymisation replaces identifying details in a document with labels, so the substance can be read without exposing who it concerns.

It is what lets a case file be discussed in a training set, a precedent note or a screenshot without naming the parties.

Doing it by pattern matching alone breaks on inflected languages and on names that are also ordinary words. Doing it from the known party names, in every spelling and case form, is what makes it reliable.
