    Description

      org.apache.mahout.math.stats.LogLikelihood.logLikelihoodRatio expects the following counts:

      • A and B together (k_11)
      • B without A (k_12)
      • A without B (k_21)
      • Neither A nor B (k_22)

      It seems to me that in org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.impl.similarity.LogLikelihoodSimilarity and org.apache.mahout.math.hadoop.similarity.vector.DistributedLoglikelihoodVectorSimilarity the counts of k_12 and k_21 are given in the wrong order (B without A should come before A without B)

      Can someone confirm that?
