scipy.spatial.distance.sokalmichener(u, v, w=None)[source]¶ Computes the Sokal-Michener dissimilarity between two boolean 1-D arrays.
The Sokal-Michener dissimilarity between boolean 1-D arrays u and v, is defined as
\[\frac{R} {S + R}\]where \(c_{ij}\) is the number of occurrences of \(\mathtt{u[k]} = i\) and \(\mathtt{v[k]} = j\) for \(k < n\), \(R = 2 * (c_{TF} + c_{FT})\) and \(S = c_{FF} + c_{TT}\).
Parameters: u : (N,) array_like, bool
Input array.
v : (N,) array_like, bool
Input array.
w : (N,) array_like, optional
The weights for each value in u and v. Default is None, which gives each value a weight of 1.0
Returns: sokalmichener : double
The Sokal-Michener dissimilarity between vectors u and v.
