A classification of presence/absence based dissimilarity coefficients

F. B. Baulieu1

(1) Natural and Applied Sciences, University of Wisconsin, 54301 Green Bay, WI, USA

Abstract  Several desirable order properties for dissimilarity coefficients based on presence/absence of attributes are given and several popular dissimilarity coefficients are examined with respect to these properties. A characterization for rational functions with linear numerator and linear denominator satisfying all of the desirable properties is given.

Keywords  Measures of association - Profile similarities
