I managed to calculate the TF-IDF and matrix using the following code:
from sklearn.feature_extraction.text import TfidfVectorizer
#define vectorizer parameters
tfidf_vectorizer = TfidfVectorizer(max_df=0.8, max_features=200000,
min_df=0.2, stop_words='english',
use_idf=True, ngram_range=(1,3))
tfidf_matrix = tfidf_vectorizer.fit_transform(paragraphs) #fit the vectorizer to paragraphs
However, I would now like to compare the similarity of different paragraphs, my end result should look like this:
Pair# | Paragraph1 | Paragraph2 | Similarity score
1 --------xyz --------xyz --------- 30.2%
2 --------xyz --------xyz --------- 22.3%
3 --------xyz --------xyz --------- 4.3%
How can I use the TF-IDF
matrix to compare the different paragraph pairs?
Assuming that each paragraph in your paragraphs
parameter is a string, then each row in your tfidf_matrix
would be a numeric vector representing that string. A common metric for measuring the similarity between vectors (and specifically tf-idf weight vectors) is cosine similarity . One useful implementation is the scikit-learn cosine_similarity method which accepts matrices as inputs.
So presumably you could do:
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
cosine_sim_matrix = cosine_similarity(tfidf_matrix, tfidf_matrix)
Every cell i, j
will be the similarity score between paragraphs i
and j
.
