folwkesMallowsIndex: Folwkes & Mallows Index

In partitionComparison: Implements Measures for the Comparison of Two Partitions

Folwkes & Mallows Index

Description

Compute the index of Folwkes and Mallows

\sqrt{\frac{N_{11}}{N_{21}} \frac{N_{11}}{N_{12}}}

which is a combination of the two Wallace indices.

Usage

folwkesMallowsIndex(p, q)

## S4 method for signature 'Partition,Partition'
folwkesMallowsIndex(p, q)

## S4 method for signature 'PairCoefficients,missing'
folwkesMallowsIndex(p, q = NULL)

Arguments

p	The partition P or an instance of PairCoefficients
q	The partition Q or NULL

Methods (by class)

• folwkesMallowsIndex(p = Partition, q = Partition): Compute given two partitions

• folwkesMallowsIndex(p = PairCoefficients, q = missing): Compute given the pair coefficients
