Distance between two words

Distance is equal to 1 - cosine

get_word_distance(model, w1, w2)

Arguments

model	trained fastText model. Null if train a new model.
w1	first word to compare
w2	second word to compare

Value

a scalar with the distance

Examples

library(fastrtext)
model_test_path <- system.file("extdata", "model_unsupervised_test.bin", package = "fastrtext")
model <- load_model(model_test_path)
get_word_distance(model, "time", "timing")
#>           [,1]
#> [1,] 0.5868116
