COS_TEXT: Cosine similarity for text documents

In textTinyR: Text Processing for Small or Big Data Files

Description

Cosine similarity for text documents

Usage

COS_TEXT(
  text_vector1 = NULL,
  text_vector2 = NULL,
  threads = 1,
  separator = " "
)

Arguments

text_vector1	a character string vector representing text documents (it should have the same length as the text_vector2)
text_vector2	a character string vector representing text documents (it should have the same length as the text_vector1)
threads	a numeric value specifying the number of cores to run in parallel
separator	specifies the separator used between words of each character string in the text vectors

Details

The function calculates the cosine distance between pairs of text sequences of two character string vectors

Value

a numeric vector

Examples

library(textTinyR)

vec1 = c('use this', 'function to compute the')

vec2 = c('cosine distance', 'between text sequences')

out = COS_TEXT(text_vector1 = vec1, text_vector2 = vec2, separator = " ")
