Class ClusteringMetric

java.lang.Object

org.tribuo.clustering.evaluation.ClusteringMetric

All Implemented Interfaces:

EvaluationMetric<ClusterID, org.tribuo.clustering.evaluation.ClusteringMetric.Context>

public class ClusteringMetric
extends Object
implements EvaluationMetric<ClusterID, org.tribuo.clustering.evaluation.ClusteringMetric.Context>

A metric for evaluating clustering problems. The sufficient statistics are the cluster ids assigned to every point, along with the "true" ids.
