Sorensen–Dice coefficient: Difference between revisions

(clarification about A ∩ B)
Line 24:
Sørensen–Dice measures the similarity of two groups by dividing twice the intersection token count by the total token count of both groups:
 
SDC = 2 × |A ∩ BA∩B| / (|A| + |B|)
 
it being understood that A, B and A∩B are to be understood as multisets, and that if an item, x, has multiplicity a in A and b in B, then it will have multiplicity min(a,b) in A∩B.
 
The Sørensen–Dice coefficient is thus a ratio between 0.0 and 1.0 giving the "percent similarity" between the two populations.
