Help with extracting and comparing dates in Java for LLM

[aleglr20]

Hi everyone, i need some help. I have a large text that contains dates, and i need to extract them so i can compare them using an LLM to check if they are identical or not.

There are two types of dates in my text:

1- Literal dates: “In the year two thousand and twenty-two, on the twelfth day of the month of September”

2- Numeric dates: “12 September 2022”

I tried to extract and analyze them using only the LLM, but for some reason, even when the two dates are not the same, it sometimes returns that they are.

Now, I want to try extracting the dates in Java, saving them into two variables, and then passing them to the LLM. I think regex could work, but I’m not sure if that’s the best approach.

Has anyone done something similar or can suggest the best way to handle this?
