Re: [jira] Updated: (MAHOUT-95) UserSimilarity-based NearestNNeighborhood

[Sean Owen <sr...@gmail.com>]

Change this.minSim = 0;   to    this.minSim = Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY;
and then you can remove the check for it being > 0 later. This is
because similarity could be negative.
Then you can cull the commented lines, then looks good to me.

Yeah I like just pushing it together rather than making two classes here.
