I have implemented cosine similarity in Matlab like this. In fact, I have a two-dimensional 50-by-50 matrix. To obtain a cosine should I compare items in a line by line form.
for j = 1:50
x = dat(j,:);
for i = j+1:50
y = dat(i,:);
c = dot(x,y);
sim = c/(norm(x,2)*norm(y,2));
end
end
Is this correct? and The question is this: wath is the complexity or O(n) in this state?
Better end with 49. Maybe you should also add an index to sim?
for j = 1:49
x = dat(j,:);
for i = j+1:50
y = dat(i,:);
c = dot(x,y);
sim(j) = c/(norm(x,2)*norm(y,2));
end
end
The complexity should be roughly like o(n^2), isn't it? Maybe you should have a look at correlation functions ... I don't get what you want to write exactly, but it looks like you want to do something similar. There are built-in correlation functions in Matlab.
