Abstract

Rand Index (Rand, 1971) has been widely used in evaluating the performance of multiple cluster trials. Since it is based on pair-wise relationship, it fails to observe the global relationship among the data vectors. In this article, we will present a new metric, Agreement Share, as an alternative tool for measuring the performance of cluster result. We will compare its performance and discuss the applications of using Agreement Share.

On Windows:

Most of the popular file compression programs such as WinZip, WinRAR and 7-zip support decompressing the tgz files.
