Skip-gram and TF-IDF are both text vectorization methods that convert text into numerical feature vectors. Skip-gram is a prediction-based word embedding method that learns vector representations of words from their contexts in a large corpus of text. TF-IDF is a frequency-based word weighting method that assigns scores to words based on their importance in a document and in a corpus of documents.
