How to measure distance visual acuity

open access: yesCommunity Eye Health Journal, 2014
Visual acuity (VA) is a measure of the ability of the eye to distinguish shapes and the details of objects at a given distance. It is important to assess VA in a consistent way in order to detect any changes in vision. One eye is tested at a time.

On The General Distance Measure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In [1993], pp. 44–45 the distance measure was proposed, which can be used for the ordinal data. In the paper the proposal of the general distance measure is given. This measure can be used for data measured in ratio, interval and ordinal scale. The proposal is based on the idea of the generalised correlation coefficient.

Dynamic Distance Measure on Spaces of Isospectral Mixed Quantum States

open access: yesEntropy, 2013
Distance measures are used to quantify the extent to which information is preserved or altered by quantum processes, and thus are indispensable tools in quantum information and quantum computing.

Resistance distance, information centrality, node vulnerability and vibrations in complex networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We discuss three seemingly unrelated quantities that have been introduced in different fields of science for complex networks. The three quantities are the resistance distance, the information centrality and the node displacement.

Compression-Complexity Measures for Analysis and Classification of Coronaviruses

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
Finding a vaccine or specific antiviral treatment for a global pandemic of virus diseases (such as the ongoing COVID-19) requires rapid analysis, annotation and evaluation of metagenomic libraries to enable a quick and efficient screening of nucleotide ...

A cognitively grounded measure of pronunciation distance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In this study we develop pronunciation distances based on naive discriminative learning (NDL). Measures of pronunciation distance are used in several subfields of linguistics, including psycholinguistics, dialectology and typology.

A generalized hybrid distance measure for SVNS with an application in medical diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems
A generalized hybrid distance measure of a single value neutrosophic set (SVNS) is proposed to analyze the patient’s factors and diseases. Since Neutrosophic Set (NS) may communicate contradictory and ambiguous information, it is a crucial and useful ...

Selection of Soybean Genotypes under Drought and Saline Stress Conditions Using Manhattan Distance and TOPSIS

open access: yesPlants, 2022
The search for soybean genotypes more adapted to abiotic stress conditions is essential to boost the development and yield of the crop in Brazil and worldwide. In this research, we propose a new approach using the concept of distance (or similarity) in a

Similarity measure, entropy and distance measure of multiple sets [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fuzzy Extension and Applications
A multiple set is an extended version of a fuzzy set that simultaneously addresses an element’s multiplicity and uncertainty. In this paper, we define the approximate equality of multiple sets and study some relevant properties associated with it.
