jaccard_hyper_grid_search {zoomerjoin}R Documentation

Help Choose the Appropriate LSH Hyperparameters

Description

Runs a grid search to find the hyperparameters that will achieve an (s1,s2,p1,p2)-sensitive locality sensitive hash. A locality sensitive hash can be called (s1,s2,p1,p2)-sensitive if to strings with a similarity less than s1 have a less than p1 chance of being compared, while two strings with similarity s2 have a greater than p2 chance of being compared. As an example, a (.1,.7,.001,.999)-sensitive LSH means that strings with similarity less than .1 will have a .1% chance of being compared, while strings with .7 similarity have a 99.9% chance of being compared.

Usage

jaccard_hyper_grid_search(s1 = 0.1, s2 = 0.7, p1 = 0.001, p2 = 0.999)

Arguments

s1

the s1 parameter (the first similaity).

s2

the s2 parameter (the second similarity, must be greater than s1).

p1

the p1 parameter (the first probability).

p2

the p2 parameter (the second probability, must be greater than p1).

Value

a named vector with the hyperparameters that will meet the LSH criteria, while reducing runitme.

Examples

# Help me find the parameters that will minimize runtime while ensuring that
# two strings with similarity .1 will be compared less than .1% of the time,
# strings with .8 similaity will have a 99.95% chance of being compared:
jaccard_hyper_grid_search(.1,.9,.001,.995)
