jaccard
(x, y)¶
Compute the Jaccard distance between between two dictionaries. Suppose \(K_x\) and \(K_y\) are the sets of keys from the two input dictionaries.
\[D(x, y) = 1 - \frac{|K_x \cap K_y|}{|K_x \cup K_y|}\]
Parameters: | x : dict First input dictionary. y : dict Second input dictionary. |
---|---|
Returns: | out : float Jaccard distance between x and y. |
Notes
- Jaccard distance treats the keys in the input dictionaries as sets, and ignores the values in the input dictionaries.
