jaccard: Compute a Jaccard/Tanimoto similarity coefficient

In jaccard: Test Similarity Between Binary Data using Jaccard/Tanimoto Coefficients

Description

Compute a Jaccard/Tanimoto similarity coefficient

Usage

jaccard(x, y, center = FALSE, px = NULL, py = NULL)

Arguments

x	a binary vector (e.g., fingerprint)
y	a binary vector (e.g., fingerprint)
center	whether to center the Jaccard/Tanimoto coefficient by its expectation
px	probability of successes in x (optional)
py	probability of successes in y (optional)

Value

jaccard returns a Jaccard/Tanimoto coefficient.

Examples

set.seed(1234)
x = rbinom(100,1,.5)
y = rbinom(100,1,.5)
jaccard(x,y)

Example output

[1] 0.2933333
