The Jaccard similarity coefficient is a commonly used indicator of the
|
|
similarity between two sets. Let U be a set and A and B be subsets of U,
|
|
then the Jaccard index/similarity is defined to be the ratio of the number
|
|
of elements of their intersection and the number of elements of their union.

Inspired from Wikipedia and

Jaccard similarity is widely used with MinHashing.

Finds the jaccard similarity between two sets.
|
|
Essentially, its intersection over union.
|
|
|
|
The alternative way to calculate this is to take union as sum of the
|
|
number of items in the two sets. This will lead to jaccard similarity
|
|
of a set with itself be 1/2 instead of 1. [MMDS 2nd Edition, Page 77]

Parameters:
|
|
:set_a (set,list,tuple): A non-empty set/list
|

:set_b (set,list,tuple): A non-empty set/list
|
|
:alternativeUnion (boolean): If True, use sum of number of

items as union

Output:
|
|
(float) The jaccard similarity between the two sets.
