Convert ridge distances to ridge scores — score

Reads a distance dataset with columns id and area_distance, computes relevance_score = exp(-alpha * area_distance), and writes a scored Parquet dataset.

Usage

score_ridge(distance_parquet, output_dir = NULL, alpha = 0.5, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

distance_parquet: Path to a Parquet dataset (file or directory) with at least columns id and area_distance.
output_dir: Optional output directory. If NULL, defaults to replacing "distance_ridge" with "score_ridge" in distance_parquet.
alpha: Positive numeric scaling factor in exp(-alpha * area_distance). Default 0.5 reproduces previous behavior.
verbose: Logical; print progress messages.

Value

Invisibly returns output directory.
