Concept of Distance Between Two Vectors

The term “Vector Databases” refers to Vector data representations are utilized by vector databases for data comprehension. Consider the scenario when you need to convert more complex data, such words, images, audio, and video, into vectors. There are various methods to measure the two vectors. 

Euclidian Formula

To calculate the distance between two locations on a plane 

Manhattan Formula

This is the amount of space between two vectors if you could only travel along the data’s dimensions.

 Cosine Formula

This measure disregards the vectors’ length and instead looks at how similar their directions are. 

DotProduct Formula

This is the length of one vector measured in the direction of the other vector 

Using a certain machine learning method that relies heavily on distance measures may be the most likely scenario in which you run into distance measurements
