Jaccard coefficient:7 the similarity of A and B is |A∩B| |A∪B| . The Jaccard coefficient is named after the Swiss botanist Paul Jaccard, from around the turn of the 20th century, who was interested in how similar or different the distributions of various plants were in different regions. 7 P. Jaccard. Distribution de la flore alpine dans le bassin des dranses et dans quelques régions voisines. Bulletin de la Société Vaudoise des Sciences Naturelles, 37:241–272, 1901. 2.124 Let A := {chocolate, hazelnut, cheese}; B := {chocolate, cheese, cardamom, cherries}; and C := {chocolate}. Compute the similarities of each pair of these sets using the cardinality measure. 2.125 Repeat the previous exercise for the Jaccard coefficient.
