Human Similarity Judgments: Implications for the Design of Formal Evaluations
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents findings of a series of analyses of human similarity judgments from the Symbolic Melodic Similarity, and Audio Music Similarity tasks from the Music Information Retrieval Evaluation Exchange (MIREX) 2006. The categorical judgment data generated by the evaluators is analyzed with regard to judgment stability, inter-grader reliability, and patterns of disagreement, both within and between the two tasks. An exploration of this space yields implications for the design of MIREX-like evaluations.

Does Style of Thinking Make Differences in Consumer Judgments on Brand Extensions?
Category similarity and benefit similarity have been identified as two important factors that determine a brand extension’s success. However, which of these two factors has a greater impact on consumers’ evaluations has received little attention. This study posits that the relative advantages are moderated by people’s style of thinking – holistic versus analytic. Specifically, analytic (holisti...

متن کاملExtracting Human Face Similarity Judgments: Pairs or Triplets?
Two experimental protocols, pairwise rating and triplet ranking, have been commonly used for eliciting perceptual similarity judgments for faces and other objects. However, there has been little systematic comparison of the two methods. Pairwise rating has the advantage of greater precision, but triplet ranking is potentially a cognitive less taxing task, thus resulting in less noisy responses....
متن کامل“Deep” and “Surface” Cues: Brand Extension Evaluations by Children and Adults
We present a conceptual as well as empirical analysis showing that 11–12-year-old children, relative to adults, evaluate brand extensions by relying more on surface cues (e.g., brand name characteristics used to launch the extension) and less on deep cues (e.g., category similarity between the parent brand and the extension category). In experiment 1, children gave equivalent evaluations of bra...
متن کاملThe truth and bias model of judgment.
We present a new model for the general study of how the truth and biases affect human judgment. In the truth and bias model, judgments about the world are pulled by 2 primary forces, the truth force and the bias force, and these 2 forces are interrelated. The truth and bias model differentiates force and value, where the force is the strength of the attraction and the value is the location towa...
