lengthSimilarity property

double get lengthSimilarity

Returns the similarity in length between two terms, defined as: lengthSimilarity = 1 minus the log of the ratio between the term lengths, with a floor at 0.0: 1-(log(this.length/other.length))

Returns:

• 1.0 if this and other are the same length; and
• 0.0 if the ratio between term lengths is more than 10 or less than 0.1.

The two strings are converted to lower-case and trimmed for the comparison.

Not case sensitive.
