Description
We would like to be able to store relevant similarity measures between signatures, but are not sure what measures we will want in the future. These will be updated regularly in the future as new signatures are added, through the wiki API if this is possible. For now we should have:
- Jaccard Index
- Number of overlapping taxa
@lgeistlinger would you create a file of similarity indices based on the bugsigdb.org dump? I think we want to leave open the possibility of adding new similarity measures in the future. @tosfos would this be a good format?
signature1 signature2 jaccard number
These will be used to link to "similar" other signatures from the signature pages.
