Relevance of a set of terms

  • Frequency is defined as the number of times a term occurs in a document.
  • If the number of terms in a document is n(d) and the number of occurrences of term t in document d is n (d, t) then the total frequency(TF) is

    TF(d,t) = log(1+n(d,t)/ n(d))

  • Inverse document frequency (IDF) is used to assign weights to a term.

    IDF(t) = 1/n(t)
