sim.index: Similarity indices for job attributes

In ONETr: Efficient Authenticated Interaction with the O*NET API

Description

Computes the Sorensen-Dice and/or Jaccard indices of similarity between two jobs on the named data type (e.g., knowledge, skills, etc.).

Usage

sim.index(list1, list2, FUN, index=c("sd", "ji", "all"))

Arguments

list1	list object (from socSearch) of the first job
list2	list object (from socSearch) of the second job
FUN	job data type to compare (e.g., knowledge)
index	the preferred index of similarity (Sorensen-Dice and/or Jaccard). Can use "all" to compute both.

Value

A list of the computed indices

Note

May not work if data are not properly formatted.
