yuhao yang commented on SPARK-22195: ------------------------------------ Exactly, the implementation is straight forward, but I guess not every one knows about it. I was asked several times about if Spark supports cosine similarity computation and I had to do the expatiation. Just want to see if this is a common requirement. > Add cosine similarity to org.apache.spark.ml.linalg.Vectors > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-22195 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22195 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: ML > Affects Versions: 2.2.0 > Reporter: yuhao yang > Priority: Minor > > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosine_similarity: > As the most important measure of similarity, I found it quite useful in some > image and NLP applications according to personal experience. > Suggest to add function for cosine similarity in > org.apache.spark.ml.linalg.Vectors. > Interface: > def cosineSimilarity(v1: Vector, v2: Vector): Double = ... > def cosineSimilarity(v1: Vector, v2: Vector, norm1: Double, norm2: Double): > Double = ... > Appreciate suggestions and need green light from committers. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
