A New Weighted Rank Correlation
Problem Statement: There have been many cases in real life where two independent sources have ranked n objects, with the interest focused on agreement in the top rankings. Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau coefficients assigned equal weights to all rankings. As a result, the literature proposed several weighted correlation coefficients with emphasis on the top rankings, including the top-down, w...
متن کاملcompactifications and function spaces on weighted semigruops
chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...
15 صفحه اولRight-invariant generalized metrics applied to rank correlation coefficients
In this paper we investigate properties of rank correlation coefficients that can be derived from right-invariant generalized metrics on the symmetric group. We prove some new inequalities between a number of generalized metrics, and we characterize the sample sizes for which several (right-invariant) rank correlation coefficients can equal zero. Using the Hausdorff generalized metric, we show ...
متن کاملA new cue to figure–ground coding: top–bottom polarity
We present evidence for a new figure-ground cue: top-bottom polarity. In an explicit reporting task, participants were more likely to interpret stimuli with a wide base and a narrow top as a figure. A similar advantage for wide-based stimuli also occurred in a visual short-term memory task, where the stimuli had ambiguous figure-ground relations. Further support comes from a figural search task...
متن کاملPerceptual learning: Top to bottom
Perceptual learning has traditionally been portrayed as a bottom-up phenomenon that improves encoding or decoding of the trained stimulus. Cognitive skills such as attention and memory are thought to drive, guide and modulate learning but are, with notable exceptions, not generally considered to undergo changes themselves as a result of training with simple perceptual tasks. Moreover, shifts in...
