协同过滤用户相似度度量

闵氏距离(Minkowski Distance)

当r=1时，曼哈顿距离(Manhatten)

当r=2时，欧氏距离(Euclidean)

r=无穷大，上确界距离(Supermum Distance)

皮尔逊相关系数(Pearson CORRELATION Coeffcient)，取值[-1,1]，1表示完全相关，-1表示完全不相关

近似计算公式

余弦相似度计算，取值[-1,1]，1表示完全相似，-1表示完全不相似

相似度的选择：

当不同用户对不同商品评价标准的范围不一样时，使用皮尔逊相关系数；

当数据稠密，且属性值大小十分重要，使用欧氏或者曼哈顿距离；

当数据稀疏，存在很多零值，考虑余弦相似度。
