The previous post looked at how to interpret cosine similarity, or equivalently angles between word vectors. In a high-dimensional space, randomly chosen vectors are likely nearly perpendicular, and so relatively large angles, such as 50°, indicate very closely related words. Another way to look at this, as explained in the previous post, is that in […]

Machine learning represents words as vectors and measures the similarity of words by the angles between the vectors. For vectors x and y, where θ is the angle between the vectors, and so This is the cosine similarity between the words represented by x and y. Small angles have large cosines, and so words with larger cosine similarities […]
