Details

  • GoodmanKruskalGamma[v1,v2] gives the Goodman–Kruskal coefficient between v1 and v2.
  • Goodman–Kruskal is a measure of monotonic association based on the relative order of consecutive elements in the two lists.
  • Goodman–Kruskal between and is given by , where is the number of concordant pairs of observations and is the number of discordant pairs.
  • A concordant pair of observations and is one such that both and or both and . A discordant pair of observations is one such that and or and .
  • If no ties are present, is equivalent to KendallTau.
  • The arguments v1 and v2 can be any real‐valued vectors of equal length.
  • For a matrix m with columns, GoodmanKruskalGamma[m] is a × matrix of the -coefficients between columns of m.
  • For an × matrix m1 and an × matrix m2, GoodmanKruskalGamma[m1,m2] is a × matrix of the -coefficients between columns of m1 and columns of m2.
  • GoodmanKruskalGamma[dist,i,j] gives where is equal to Probability[(x1-x2)(y1-y2)>0,{{x1,y1}disti,j,{x2,y2}disti,j}] and is equal to Probability[(x1-x2)(y1-y2)<0,{{x1,y1}disti,j,{x2,y2}disti,j}] where disti,j is the ^(th) marginal of dist.
  • GoodmanKruskalGamma[dist] gives a matrix where the ^(th) entry is given by GoodmanKruskalGamma[dist,i,j].
