The returned method reference returns the cosine similarity between the Embedding used to call the C<comparator> method and the Embedding supplied to the method reference.  See L<compare> for an explanation of the cosine similarity.

=head2 compare

    my $similarity_with_other_embedding = $embedding->compare($csv_embedding1, $csv_embedding2);

Compares two embeddings and returns the cosine similarity between them. The B<compare> method takes two parameters: $csv_embedding1 and $csv_embedding2 (both comma-separated embedding strings).

Returns the cosine similarity as a floating-point number between -1 and 1, where 1 represents identical embeddings, 0 represents no similarity, and -1 represents opposite embeddings.

The absolute number is not usually relevant for text comparision.  It is usually sufficient to rank the comparison results in order of high to low to reflect the best match to the worse match.
