# Sørensen-Dice Index
- very similar to Jaccard index
- Although they are calculated similarly the Sørensen-Dice index is a bit more intuitive because it can be seen as the percentage of overlap between two sets, which is a value between 0 and 1
- overstate the importance of sets with little to no ground truth positive sets
- As a result, it could dominate the average score taken over multiple sets
- It weights each item inversely proportionally to the size of the relevant set rather than treating them equally.
- $D(x,y) = \frac{2|x\cap y|}{|x|+|y|}$
