      description: 'The descriptor correlation API enables the computation of Artist and Recording similarity by providing numerical values representing that similarity. These similarity values can be used to inform music discovery and catalog navigation models and algorithms.


        The following workflow illustrates how correlates are used to show that the genre **Psychedelic Rock** is more similar to **Post-Modern Rock** than it is to **Ragtime**.


        1. The `/descriptors/genre` API is used to determine that the `genreID` for "Psychedelic Rock" is `2844`.


        ```

        curl https:///descriptors/genre

        ...

        {

        {

        "ID": "2844",

        "genericName": "Psychedelic Rock"

        }

        ...

        },


        ```


        2. The `/descriptors/descriptorCorrelations` API is used with `genreID` value `2844` and the descriptor type set to "genres".


        ```

        curl https:///descriptorCorrelations/genres?ids=2844

        ...

        {

        {

        "ID": "33121",

        "genre": "Post-Modern Rock",

        "weight": "200"

        },

        {

        "ID": "3128",

        "genre": "Ragtime",

        "weight": "-700"

        }

        ...

        }

        ```


        3. The results show that **Post-Modern Rock** is correlated to **Psychedelic Rock** with a weight of **200** while **Ragtime** is correlated with weight of **-700**. Therefore, **Post-Modern Rock** is the most similar genre.'
