Cohen's linearly weighted kappa is a weighted average
An agreement table with n ∈N≥3 ordered categories can be collapsed into n−1 distinct 2×2 tables by combining adjacent categories. Vanbelle and Albert (Stat. Methodol. 6:157–163, 2009c) showed that the components of Cohen’s weighted kappa with linear weights can be obtained from these n−1 collapsed 2× 2 tables. In this paper we consider several consequences of this result. One is that the weight...
متن کاملA note on the linearly weighted kappa
6 A frequent criticism formulated against the use of weighted kappa coefficients is 7 that the weights are arbitrarily defined. We show that using linear weights for a K8 ordinal scale is equivalent to deriving a kappa coefficient from K-1 embedded 2× 2 9 tables. 10
متن کاملCohen’s quadratically weighted kappa is higher than linearly weighted kappa for tridiagonal agreement tables
Cohen’s weighted kappa is a popular descriptive statistic for measuring the agreement between two raters on an ordinal scale. Popular weights for weighted kappa are the linear weights and the quadratic weights. It has been frequently observed in the literature that the value of the quadratically weighted kappa is higher than the value of the linearly weighted kappa. In this paper this phenomeno...
متن کاملOptimistic Fuzzy Weighted Average
− The fuzzy weighted average (FWA) is used in many engineering problems where aggregation of fuzzy information is dealt with. In this framework, many algorithms have been proposed to compute efficiently the FWA according to Zadeh's extension principle. However, due to fuzzy interval calculus, the exact solution presents a characteristic that may be viewed as an important drawback. Indeed, repla...
متن کاملFuzzy Weighted Average - Analytical Solution
An algorithm is presented for the computation of analytical expressions for the extremal values of the α-cuts of the fuzzy weighted average, for triangular or trapeizoidal weights and attributes. Also, an algorithm for the computation of the inverses of these expressions is given, providing exact membership functions of the fuzzy weighted average. Up to now, only algorithms exist for the comput...
