چکیده

In Information Retrieval (IR), measuring the distance between rankings is a way for comparing evaluation measures and assess system rankings. In this paper, we present a variation of the Spearman foot rule which allows us to define two measures that have nice analytical and geometrical properties that can be effectively used to compare different rankings and to evaluate IR experiments. A Web application that shows how these measures behave from the graphical point of view is available at: https://gmdn.shinyapps.io/ShinyPointArea/

A new attitude coupled with the basic fuzzy thinking to distance between two fuzzy numbers

Fuzzy measures are suitable in analyzing human subjective evaluation processes. Several different strategies have been proposed for distance of fuzzy numbers. The distances introduced for fuzzy numbers can be categorized in two groups:\1. The crisp distances which explain crisp values for the distance between two fuzzy numbers.\2. The fuzzy distance which introduce a fuzzy distance for normal f...

Several new results based on the study of distance measures of intuitionistic fuzzy sets

It is doubtless that intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) theory plays an increasingly important role in solving the problems under uncertain situation. As one of the most critical members in the theory, distance measure is widely used in many aspects. Nevertheless, it is a pity that part of the existing distance measures has some drawbacks in practical significance and accuracy. To make up for their...

Information Measures via Copula Functions

In applications of differential geometry to problems of parametric inference, the notion of divergence is often used to measure the separation between two parametric densities. Among them, in this paper, we will verify measures such as Kullback-Leibler information, J-divergence, Hellinger distance, -Divergence, … and so on. Properties and results related to distance between probability d...

On the Behavior of Certain Metric on the Permutations Group

When a new metric is introduced, often there is a "hidden variable" in the similarity relation (frequently depends on the specific area of research), so that we should always speak of similarity with respect to some property, and there is a plethora of measures in part because researchers are often inexplicit on this point. On the other hand, one should have some knowledge about the nature of t...

تحلیل خطر زمین لغزش در حوزه آبخیز ماسوله با استفاده از تئوری دمپستر- شیفر (Dempster-Shafer) و GIS

Watersheds are changed positively or negatively as biotic and abiotic factors in natural circumstances impact them. Landslides, as a physical factor, one of the negative consequences on these catchments. Masoleh watershed, in North of Iran, is one of the susceptible areas to explode the natural landslides. In other to landslide hazard zonation, the Dempster-Shafer model is which is used has 14 ...
