//- 💫 DOCS > USAGE > SPACY 101 > SIMILARITY

|

|
| spaCy is able to compare two objects, and make a prediction of
|
|||
|
| #[strong how similar they are]. Predicting similarity is useful for
|
|||
|
| building recommendation systems or flagging duplicates. For example, you
|
|||
|
| can suggest a user content that's similar to what they're currently
|
|||
|
| looking at, or label a support ticket as a duplicate, if it's very
|
|||
|
| similar to an already existing one.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
p
|
|||
|
| Each #[code Doc], #[code Span] and #[code Token] comes with a
|
|||
|
| #[+api("token#similarity") #[code .similarity()]] method that lets you
|
|||
|
| compare it with another object, and determine the similarity. Of course
|
|||
|
| similarity is always subjective – whether "dog" and "cat" are similar
|
|||
|
| really depends on how you're looking at it. spaCy's similarity model
|
|||
|
| usually assumes a pretty general-purpose definition of similarity.

+code.
|
|||
|
tokens = nlp(u'dog cat banana')
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
for token1 in tokens:
|
|||
|
for token2 in tokens:
|
|||
|
print(token1.similarity(token2))
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
+aside
|
|||
|
| #[strong #[+procon("neutral", 16)] similarity:] identical#[br]
|
|||
|
| #[strong #[+procon("pro", 16)] similarity:] similar (higher is more similar) #[br]
|
|||
|
| #[strong #[+procon("con", 16)] similarity:] dissimilar (lower is less similar)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
+table(["", "dog", "cat", "banana"])
|
|||
|
each cells, label in {"dog": [1.00, 0.80, 0.24], "cat": [0.80, 1.00, 0.28], "banana": [0.24, 0.28, 1.00]}
|
|||
|
+row
|
|||
|
+cell.u-text-label.u-color-theme=label
|
|||
|
for cell in cells
|
|||
|
+cell #[code=cell.toFixed(2)]
|
|||
|
| #[+procon(cell < 0.5 ? "con" : cell != 1 ? "pro" : "neutral")]

|
|||
|
| In this case, the model's predictions are pretty on point. A dog is very
|
|||
|
| similar to a cat, whereas a banana is not very similar to either of them.
|
|||
|
| Identical tokens are obviously 100% similar to each other (just not always
|
|||
|
| exactly #[code 1.0], because of vector math and floating point
|
|||
|
| imprecisions).
