content similarity detection / deduplication

[geeknik]

"Dynamic Scope" integration, cuts back on data usage while crawling by utilizing a TF-IDF machine learning model to discard pages which might be too similar to pages already crawled. 👍🏻

For example, when running katana -d 1 -u https://www.ibm.com/ -j -o ibm.json, the ibm.json is about 11MB. Now when running with Dynamic Scope which adds -uds to the command line, drops the output of ibm.json to about 3.4MB.

Crawl Fast, Crawl Smart. 🚀

   -sdd, -similarity-deduplication enable content similarity detection to avoid crawling similar pages
   -st, -similarity-threshold string similarity threshold for content deduplication (0.0-1.0, default 0.1) (default "0.1")

@geeknik very interesting approach, I'm going to review this soon and compare it with BM25

• Refactored the code to integrate with the existing engine as an optional feature instead of creating a new engine.
• Added documentation to assist with understanding and testing the feature:
• Renamed options to better reflect the feature and added support for customizing the similarity threshold.

Options:

   -sdd, -similarity-deduplication   Enable content similarity detection to avoid crawling similar pages
   -st,  -similarity-threshold       Set similarity threshold for content deduplication (range: 0.0–1.0, default: 0.1)
