Semsimian is a package to provide fast semantic similarity calculations for ontologies. It is a Rust library with a Python interface.
This includes implementation of Jaccard and Resnik similarity of terms in an ontology, as well as a method to calculate the similarity of two sets of terms (so-called termset similarity). Other methods will be added in the future.
Semsimian is currently integrated into OAK and the Monarch app to provide fast semantic similarity calculations.

>>> from semsimian import Semsimian
>>> s = Semsimian([('banana', 'is_a', 'fruit'), ('cherry', 'is_a', 'fruit')])
>>> s.jaccard_similarity('banana', 'cherry')
This should yield a value of 1.0.
As of version 0.2.11, the semsimian source is released on GitHub, with a corresponding set of Python wheels released to PyPi and a corresponding release in crates.io.
