ELoss of a partition point estimate compared to a gold standard

Description

Evaluate the loss of a point estimate of the partition compared to a gold standard according to a given loss function

Usage

evalClustLoss(c, gs, lossFn = "F-measure", a = 1, b = 1)

Arguments

c	vector of length n containing the estimated partition of the n observations.
gs	vector of length n containing the gold standard partition of the n observations.
lossFn	character string specifying the loss function to be used. Either "F-measure" or "Binder" (see Details). Default is "F-measure".
a	only relevant if lossFn is "Binder". Penalty for wrong co-clustering in c compared to gs. Defaults is 1.
b	only relevant if lossFn is "Binder". Penalty for missed co-clustering in c compared to gs. Defaults is 1.

Details

The cost of a point estimate partition is calculated using either a pairwise coincidence loss function (Binder), or 1-Fmeasure (F-measure).

Value

the cost of the point estimate c in regard of the gold standard gs for a given loss function.
