Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also Examples
Function creates a data stream vector of zeros and ones (Idata
) based on the preselected distance delta of the paired ordered lists. The obtained vector is further used as an input for compute.stream
, a function that estimates the index position of information degradation.
1 | prepare.idata(x, d)
|
x |
Data matrix or data frame, where the columns represent the lists of objects ordered according those rankings obtained from two different assessments. |
d |
The maximal distance between two lists for a ranked object |
The data stream vector is created as follows: if diff(rank1, rank2) of an individual object is less or equal delta
, then 1 is assigned; otherwise 0. The smaller the delta
value, the stronger the assumption of concordance for the paired ranked lists. When delta=0
, the condition returns 1 for an object if and only if its rankings in the two lists are identical (the two objects share the same row).
The result is an object of type Idata
, which is a list containing the data stream vector of zeros and ones, and the information about the applied distance delta
