Minkowski distance [Explained]

Minkowski distance is a distance/ similarity measurement between two points in the normed vector space (N dimensional real space) and is a generalization of the Euclidean distance and the Manhattan distance. See the applications of Minkowshi distance and its visualization using an unit circle.

Damerau Levenshtein distance

Damerau Levenshtein distance is a variant of Levenshtein distance which is a type of Edit distance. Damerau stated that the four operations in Damerau Levenshtein distance correspond to more than 80% of all human misspellings. It adds an extra operation named transposition to its set of operations

Levenshtein distance

evenshtein distance is a type of Edit distance which is a large class of distance metric of measuring the dissimilarity between two strings by computing a minimum number of operations (from a set of operations) used to convert one string to another string. It is a way of pairwise string alignment.

Edit distance

Edit distance is a large class of distance metric of measuring the dissimilarity between two strings by computing a minimum number of operations (from a set of operations) used to convert one string to another string. It can be seen as a way of pairwise string alignment.

Euclidean vs Manhattan vs Chebyshev Distance

Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance and Chebyshev distance are all distance metrics which compute a number based on two data points. All the three metrics are useful in various use cases and differ in some important aspects such as computation and real life usage.

Chebyshev distance

Chebyshev distance is a distance metric which is the maximum absolute distance in one dimension of two N dimensional points. It has real world applications in Chess, Warehouse logistics and many other fields. It is known as Tchebychev distance, maximum metric, chessboard distance and Lāˆž metric.

Euclidean distance (L2 norm)

Euclidean distance is the shortest distance between two points in an N dimensional space also known as Euclidean space. It is used as a common metric to measure the similarity between two data points and used in various fields such as geometry, data mining, deep learning and others.

Manhattan distance [Explained]

Manhattan distance (L1 norm) is a distance metric between two points in a N dimensional vector space. It is the sum of the lengths of the projections of the line segment between the points onto the coordinate axes. It was introduced by Hermann Minkowski. It is used in regression analysis
