Really nice. In fact it would be ****great**** if we can plug the comparison between the x and y cells (which can be different). Because like that we get a simple matrix based comparator similar to the one of early paper of prejinshight work.
This is the case actually.
Consider this rather simple and small example: SimilarityMatrix new on: #('hello world' 'welcome to our world' 'hello means bonjour' 'bye bye') by: [ :m1 : m2 | (m1 substrings intersection: m2 substrings) size / ((1 max: (m1 substrings union: m2 substrings) size) + 1) "NB penalty for small methods" ]; gridView
The output is
It visually says that ‘hello world’ is close to ‘welcome to out world’ and to ‘hello means bonjour’, because ‘hello’ and ‘world’ are in common.
