Description

The 'apply' method returns the similarity score instead of the distance score as implied from the class name.

It is stated in the javadoc, but it is not aligned with the approach of the rest similarity scores in the same package (e.g LevenshteinDetailedDistance).

Maybe a rename of the class or the method to avoid confusion?
