@@ -2051,6 +2052,26 @@ The algorithm takes a directed, vertex (and possibly
edge) attributed graph as i
vertex represents a group of vertices and each edge represents a group of
edges from the input graph. Furthermore, each
vertex and edge in the output graph stores the common group value and the
number of represented elements.
+### Jaccard Index
+
+#### Overview
+The Jaccard Index measures the similarity between vertex neighborhoods.
Scores range from 0.0 (no common neighbors) to
+1.0 (all neighbors are common).
+
+#### Details
+Counting common neighbors for pairs of vertices is equivalent to counting
the two-paths consisting of two edges

By "two-paths" you mean triads? i.e. open triangles?

>
> Implement a Jaccard Similarity algorithm computing all non-zero similarity
> scores. This algorithm is similar to {{TriangleListing}} but instead of
> joining two-paths against an edge list we count two-paths.
> {{flink-gelly-examples}} currently has {{JaccardSimilarityMeasure}} which
> relies on {{Graph.getTriplets()}} so only computes similarity scores for
> neighbors but not neighbors-of-neighbors.
> This algorithm is easily modified for other similarity scores such as
> Adamic-Adar similarity where the sum of endpoint degrees is replaced by the
> degree of the middle vertex.
