Abstract
Similarity functions are not distances, but functions aimed to evaluate the similarity between two objects. Some of them relate to some other previously explained measures, such as cosine distance. Others are statistical or probabilistic, or rely on fuzzy logic. It has not been possible to provide a comprehensive table with recognition rates, as the data were to different to be compared.
Keywords: Similarity function, dissimilarity function, kernel function, Tversky’s similarity function.
