Cosine Distance Matrix¶

Given $$n$$ feature vectors $$x_1 = (x_{11}, \ldots, x_{1p}), \ldots x_n = (x_{n1}, \ldots, x_{np})$$ of dimension Lmath:p, the problem is to compute the symmetric $$n \times n$$ matrix $$D_{\text{cos}} = (d_{ij})$$ of distances between feature vectors, where

$d_{ij} = 1 - \frac {\sum_{k=1}^{p} x_{ik} x_{jk}} {\sqrt{ \sum_{k=1}^{p} x_{ik}^2 } \sqrt{ \sum_{k=1}^{p} x_{jk}^2 }}$
$i = \overline{1, n}$
$j = \overline{1, n}$

Input ID

Input

data

Pointer to the $$n \times p$$ numeric table for which the distance is computed.

The input can be an object of any class derived from NumericTable.

Algorithm Parameters¶

The cosine distance matrix algorithm has the following parameters:

Parameter

Default Value

Description

algorithmFPType

float

The floating-point type that the algorithm uses for intermediate computations. Can be float or double.

method

defaultDense

Performance-oriented computation method, the only method supported by the algorithm.

Algorithm Output¶

The cosine distance matrix algorithm calculates the result described below. Pass the Result ID as a parameter to the methods that access the results of your algorithm. For more details, see Algorithms.

Result ID

Result

cosineDistance

Pointer to the numeric table that represents the $$n \times n$$ symmetric distance matrix $$D_\text{cos}$$.

By default, the result is an object of the PackedSymmetricMatrix class with the lowerPackedSymmetricMatrix layout. However, you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except PackedTriangularMatrix and CSRNumericTable.

Performance Considerations¶

• If input data is homogeneous, provide the input data and store results in homogeneous numeric tables of the same type as specified in the algorithmFPType class template parameter.
