SparseTermSimilarityMatrix().inner_product() throws "cannot unpack non-iterable bool object"

Question

While working with cosine similarity, I am facing issue calculating the inner product of two vectors.

Code:

from gensim.similarities import (
    WordEmbeddingSimilarityIndex,
    SparseTermSimilarityMatrix
)

w2v_model         = api.load("glove-wiki-gigaword-50")
similarity_index  = WordEmbeddingSimilarityIndex(w2v_model)
similarity_matrix = SparseTermSimilarityMatrix(similarity_index, dictionary)

score = similarity_matrix.inner_product(
    X = [
        (0, 1), (1, 1), (2, 1), (3, 2), (4, 1), 
        (5, 1), (6, 1), (7, 1), (8, 1), (9, 1), 
        (10, 1), (11, 1), (12, 1), (13, 1), (14, 1), 
        (15, 1), (16, 3)
    ], 
    Y = [(221, 1), (648, 1), (8238, 1)], 
    normalized = True
)

Error:

TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)

TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable bool object

I am not sure why it says bool objects when both X and Y are list.

Answer 1

The normalized parameter should be a 2-tuple which declares for both X and Y separately (as in the docs).

Therefore, the call should look like this:

score = similarity_matrix.inner_product(
    X = [
        (0, 1), (1, 1), (2, 1), (3, 2), (4, 1), 
        (5, 1), (6, 1), (7, 1), (8, 1), (9, 1), 
        (10, 1), (11, 1), (12, 1), (13, 1), (14, 1), 
        (15, 1), (16, 3)
    ], 
    Y = [(221, 1), (648, 1), (8238, 1)], 
    normalized = (True, True)
)
