A family of functional dissimilarity measures for presence and absence data
Plot-to-plot dissimilarity measures are considered a valuable tool for understanding the complex ecological mechanisms that drive community composition. Traditional presence/absence coefficients are usually based on different combinations of the matching/mismatching components of the 2 × 2 contingency table. However, more recently, dissimilarity measures that incorporate information about the d...
متن کاملComparing Dissimilarity Measures for Symbolic Data Analysis
Nowadays, data analysts are confronted with new challenges: they are asked to process data that go beyond the classical framework, as in the case of data concerning more or less homogeneous classes or groups of individuals (second-order objects) instead of single individuals (first-order objects). A typical situation is that of census data, which raise privacy issues in all governmental agencie...
متن کاملDissimilarity Measures For Unconstrained Sorting Data.
In this article, three dissimilarity measures for the unconstrained sorting task are investigated. All three measures are metrics, but they differ in the kind of compensation which they make for differences in the sizes of cells within sortings. Empirical tests of the three measures are done with sorting data for occupations names and the names of behaviors, using the multidimensional scaling m...
متن کاملevaluation of dissimilarity measures for image retrieval and classification
in this paper, the performance of 11 different distances for image retrieval and classification, based on color, shape and texture, is evaluated. the precision-recall measure and the correct classification rate of the k-nn classifier are used to evaluate retrieval and classification performances, respectively. the experimental results for a database of 1000 images from 10 different semantic gro...
متن کاملBounds of Resemblance Measures for Binary (Presence/Absence) Variables
Bounds of association coefficients for binary variables are derived using the arithmetic-geometric-harmonic mean inequality. More precisely, it is shown which presence/absence coefficients are bounds with respect to each other. Using the new bounds it is investigated whether a coefficient is in general closer to either its upper or its lower bound.
