Measuring the similarity between two texts is a fundamental problem in many NLP and IR applications. Among the existing approaches, the cosine measure of the term vectors represen...
This paper gives an overview of shape dissimilarity measure properties, such as metric and robustness properties, and of retrieval performance measures. Fifteen shape similarity me...
A variety of (dis)similarity measures for one-dimensional point processes (e.g., spike trains) are investigated, including the Victor-Purpura distance metric, the van Rossum distan...
Measuring the similarity between rhythms is a fundamental problem in computational music theory, with many applications such as music information retrieval and copyright infringem...
The problem of measuring similarity between web pages arises in many important Web applications, such as search engines and Web directories. In this paper, we propose a novel neig...
