You need to be careful with the assumptions you make about the doc2vec implementation. Here are some useful concepts: Word2vec has two different model implementations (Skip-gram and Continuous-bag-of-words) and Doc2vec has analogous PV-DM and CBOW models: Word2vec Continuous-bag-of-words (CBOW) Skip-gram Doc2vec (Paragraph Vector) Distributed Memory (PV-...

One approach is using Word Mover’s Distance (WMD). WMD is an algorithm for finding the distance between texts of different lengths, where each word is represented as a word embedding vector. The WMD distance measures the dissimilarity between two text documents as the minimum amount of distance that the embedded words of one document need to "travel" to ...

In general,there are two ways for finding document-document similarity TF-IDF approach Make a text corpus containing all words of documents . You have to use tokenisation and stop word removal . NLTK library provides all . Convert the documents into tf-idf vectors . Find the cosine-similarity between them or any new document for similarity measure. You ...

If you have the vectors for your keywords, you can aggregate those to get the document vectors. The simplest(and probably one of the most effective) way is to average out your keyword vectors to form the document vector. Once you have the vectors for each of the documents, you can use similarity measures like cosine similarity to see how close your documents ...

It sounds as if you don't need clustering. But rather you are trying to detect near duplicates. The difference is that clustering tries to organize everything with a focus on the larger, overall structure. But much of your data probably isn't duplicate. Clustering is difficult and slow. Near duplicates is much easier, and much faster (e.g., with MinHash or ...

Word2Vec is not a combination of two models, rather both are variants of word2vec. Similarly doc2vec has Distributed Memory(DM) model and Distributed Bag of words (DBOW) model. Based on the context words and the target word, these variants arised. Note: the name of the model maybe confusing Distriubted Bag of words is similar to Skip-gram model ...

Elasticsearch is the right tool to use if you don't want to code this yourself. Indeed, you need an indexing algorithm that is able to efficiently retrieve pieces of texts in a big database, and SQL isn't particularly good at it. Moreover, Elasticsearch is quite user friendly, so it won't be an overkill to actually install it and use it. You might discover ...

As you say, thinking ahead about the number of clusters may be limiting. A simple solution would be to use KNN. However, KNN can be pretty expensive to run over hundreds of ks of documents. In order to limit your search space, you should first filter out (and do it quickly) documents that there is no chance that would share a cluster with the new document. ...

It sounds like you're trying to do some sort of topic modeling. I might recommend something like Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA), Latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), or Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI). LSA performs a matrix decomposition of the document x keyword occurrence matrix to extract salient topics. It can allow you to find the cosine similarity between ...

There are many ways to see how texts are similar, but this will depend on your use case. Semantics Nowadays, word embeddings are getting popular. Like it was suggested in the comments, you could use Doc2Vec to transform your sentence into a vector and calculate the cosine distance from each sentence. The idea with these learned embeddings is that you kind ...

I would probably approach this by creating a set of features for each document, you could, for example, use a Bag of words representation or TF-IDF term weighting. Following this, you can compute the closeness of these features through some distance metric and use this as a measure of the similarity.

Normalised vectors have magnitude 1, so it doesn't matter if you explicitly divide by the magnitudes or not. It's mathematically equivalent either way. I see no reason that you couldn't use normalised vectors in TS-SS, but it seems that the main motivation for using TS-SS in the first place is that it makes more sense for vectors that may have different ...

They call the same underlying method, so there is no functional difference. Calling the dataframe member function is preferred for OOP patterns, but there are many redundancies/aliases in pandas and python in general. In case you are curious, here is how the source code breaks down (it is a mess). The DataFrame (pandas/core/frame.py) method is simply: ...

You might want to look at Siamese CNNs depending on the size of your dataset. A good introduction can be found here.

Yes, Cosine TF-IDF is quite transparent so it's usually reasonably easy to visualize the words which contribute the most to a score. Cosine is defined as the dot product divided by the product of the norms, so you can isolate the terms: dotproduct(d_1,d_2) = tfidf(w1,d1) * tfidf(w1,d2) + tfidf(w2,d1) * tfidf(w2,d2) + ... + tfidf(wN,dN) Ranking the words ...

The most common way is to measure the similarity between two text documents is distance in a vector space. A vector space model can be created by using word count, tf-idf, word embeddings, or document embeddings. Distance is most often measured by cosine similarity. Once all the documents are in the same vector space, the 100x100 matrix with cosine ...

You might want to take a look at the solr project to see if it is a good fit.

You can start with MOSS (Measure Of Software Similarity). It can find similar software documents in a set of software documents. It has several nice properties - whitespace insensitivity, noise suppression, and position independence. It is based on the more general idea of document fingerprinting where a hash is constructed of the document. The document hash ...

I would use the first approach, given that both train and test are known, there is no need of generalization i.e. you don't expect unseen vectors. In order to avoid the problem you mentioned, you have to find the most similar vector to a vector in test considering only vectors in train. For example: train = [v1, v2, v3] test = [v4, v5] most_similar = {} ...

Euclidean distance -by which in this application, I assume you mean the euclidean distance in an $n$-dimensional space defined by the distribution of document contents among $n$ topics considered, is a valid measure to use in comparing the topics represented within two documents. What you're doing by applying this method is quantifying a topic frequency ...

You want to use all of the terms in the vector. In your example, where your query vector $\mathbf{q} = [0,1,0,1,1]$ and your document vector $\mathbf{d} = [1,1,1,0,0]$, the cosine similarity is computed as similarity \$= \frac{\mathbf{q} \cdot \mathbf{d}}{||\mathbf{q}||_2 ||\mathbf{d}||_2} = \frac{0\times1+1\times1+0\times1+1\times0+1\times0}{\sqrt{1^2+1^2+...

As of now, I can think of two ways to formulate this problem: 1. Search problem Parse your job listings and index them in some sort of search engine like Solr or ElasticSearch. You can build capabilities like Semantic search using Word2Vec models, etc. Now write a query engine which takes a resume and queries this Search engine. It will be blazing fast ...

Distributed Memory model preserves the word order in a document whereas Distributed Bag of words just uses the bag of words approach, which doesn't preserve any word order. This has been explained in details in this research paper.

Documentation says: Deep learning via the distributed memory and distributed bag of words models from [1], using either hierarchical softmax or negative sampling [2], [3].

PMC from Mahout here- we're in the middle of a site re-org at the moment, and things are... well they're a mess. Here's a link to something I think is more useful.

20 is a very very small number, even performing the following might not help. However, you can try changing the parameters such as the window size, and the number of iterations. However, increasing the number of iterations a lot can cause the model to over fit. In my case, decreasing the window size helped.
