> CosineDistanceMeasure doesn't return 0 for two 0 vectors
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MAHOUT-1189
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1189
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Dan Filimon
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.8
>
>
> CosineDistanceMeasure for two equal vectors should always return 0 like for
> any other distance measure, however it returns 1.
> This patch fixes this issue.
> Also, note that it's not necessarily obvious what the return value should be
> since the cosine of two 0-length vectors isn't defined.
