neighborsForVector:maximumCount:distanceType:

Retrieves a limited number of strings near a location in the vocabulary space.

Declaration

- (NSArray<NSString *> *) neighborsForVector:(NSArray<NSNumber *> *) vector maximumCount:(NSUInteger) maxCount distanceType:(NLDistanceType) distanceType;

Parameters

  • vector:

    A location in the vocabulary space.

  • maxCount:

    The largest number of neighboring strings that the method can return in an array.

  • distanceType:

    A means of calculating distance that determines which formula the method uses to evaluate a neighbor’s distance from vector.

Return Value

An array of tuples that contain neighboring strings and their distances. In Objective-C, this returns an array of neighboring strings.
