Sim_Rada_1989

It is based on the distance between term a and b. It is defined as:

sim = 1/(1 + d(a, b))

The distance can be the shortest distance between a and b or the longest distance via the LCA term.

There is a parameter distance which takes value of "longest_distances_via_LCA" (the default) or "shortest_distances_via_NCA":

    control = list(distance = "shortest_distances_via_NCA"))
