Method Details

calculateBinaryVectorDissimilarity

double calculateBinaryVectorDissimilarity(int bitCount,
 int targetOnly,
 int queryOnly,
 int common)

Calculate represented dissimilarity score from binary vector parameters.

Parameters:

bitCount - Length of binary vectors in bits

targetOnly - Number of bit positions where only target contains set bits

queryOnly - Number of bit positions where only query contains set bits

common - Number of bit positions where both query and target contains set bits

Returns:

Dissimilarity score
