A new consensus measure based on Pearson correlation coefficient
Obtaining consensual solutions is an important issue in decision making processes. It depends on several factors such as experts’ opinions, principles, knowledge, experience, etc. In the literature we can find a considerable amount of consensus measurement from different research areas (from a Social Choice perspective: Alcalde-Unzu and Vorsatz [1], Alcantud, de Andrés Calle and Cascón [2] and ...
متن کاملA modified correlation coefficient based similarity measure for clustering time-course gene expression data
Gene expression levels are often measured consecutively in time through microarray experiments to detect cellular processes underlying regulatory effects observed and to assign functionality to genes whose function is yet unknown. Clustering methods allow us to group genes that show similar time-course expression profiles and that are thus likely to be co-regulated. The correlation coefficient,...
متن کاملA problem with the correlation coefficient as a measure of gene expression divergence.
The correlation coefficient is commonly used as a measure of the divergence of gene expression profiles between different species. Here we point out a potential problem with this statistic: if measurement error is large relative to the differences in expression, the correlation coefficient will tend to show high divergence for genes that have relatively uniform levels of expression across tissu...
متن کاملPoint Similarity Measure Based on Mutual Information
Registration of multi-modality images requires similarity measures that can deal with complex and unknown image intensity dependencies. Such measures have to rely on statistics, and consequently, they require relatively large image regions to operate. This makes the detection of localized image discrepancies difficult. As a solution we propose point similarity measures, which can measure simila...
متن کاملMutual Information Analysis with Similarity Measure
Discussion and analysis about relative mutual information has been carried out through fuzzy entropy and similarity measure. Fuzzy relative mutual information measure (FRIM) plays an important part as a measure of information shared between two fuzzy pattern vectors. This FRIM is analyzed and explained through similarity measure between two fuzzy sets. Furthermore, comparison between two measur...
