Statistical distance

Normalized Google distance

The Normalized Google Distance (NGD) is a semantic similarity measure derived from the number of hits returned by the Google search engine for a given set of keywords. Keywords with the same or similar meanings in a natural language sense tend to be "close" in units of Normalized Google Distance, while words with dissimilar meanings tend to be farther apart. Specifically, the Normalized Google Distance (NGD) between two search terms x and y is where N is the total number of web pages searched by Google multiplied by the average number of singleton search terms occurring on pages; f(x) and f(y) are the number of hits for search terms x and y, respectively; and f(x, y) is the number of web pages on which both x and y occur. If the then x and y are viewed as alike as possible, but if then x and y are very different.If the two search terms x and y never occur together on the same web page, but do occur separately, the NGD between them is infinite. If both terms always occur together, their NGD is zero. Example: On 9 April 2013, googling for "Shakespeare" gave 130,000,000 hits;googling for "Macbeth" gave 26,000,000 hits; and googlingfor "Shakespeare Macbeth" gave 20,800,000 hits.The number of pages indexed by Google was estimated by the numberof hits of the search term "the" which was 25,270,000,000 hits. Assumingthere are about 1,000 search terms on the average page this gives .Hence . "Shakespeare" and "Macbeth" arevery much alike according to the relative semantics supplied by Google. (Wikipedia).

Find the reference angle of a angle larger than 2pi

👉 Learn how to find the reference angle of a given angle. The reference angle is the acute angle formed by the terminal side of an angle and the x-axis. To find the reference angle, we determine the quadrant on which the given angle lies and use the reference angle formula for the quadrant

Find the distance between two coordinate points ex 2

👉 Learn how to find the distance between two points. The distance between two points is the length of the line joining the two points in the coordinate plane. To find the distance between two points in the coordinate plane, we make use of the formula d = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2). 👏
