All methods can be used as class or object methods.

new

$object = Bag::Similarity->new();

similarity

my $similarity = $object->similarity($any1,$any1,$width);

$any can be an arrayref, a hashref or a string. Strings are tokenized into n-grams of width $width.

$width must be integer, or defaults to 1.

from_tokens

my $similarity = $object->from_tokens(['a','b'],['b']);

my $similarity = $object->from_bags(['a'],['b']);

Croaks if called directly. This method should be implemented in a child module.

intersection

my $intersection_size = $object->intersection(['a'],['b']);

my $set_size_sum = $object->combined_length(['a'],['b']);

min

my $min_set_size = $object->min(['a'],['b']);

my @bigrams = $object->ngrams('abc',2);
