Comparing distributions of ordinal data [PDF]
To compare distributions of ordinal data such as individuals’ responses on Likert-type scale variables summarizing subjective well-being, we should not apply the toolbox of methods developed for cardinal variables such as income. Instead, we should use an analogous toolbox that accounts for the ordinal nature of the responses.

Modelling Qualitative Data from Repeated Surveys
This article presents an innovative dynamic model that describes the probability distributions of ordered categorical variables observed over time. For this purpose, we extend the definition of the mixture distribution obtained from the combination of a ...

Conditional entropy of ordinal patterns [PDF]
In this paper we investigate a quantity called conditional entropy of ordinal patterns, akin to the permutation entropy. The conditional entropy of ordinal patterns describes the average diversity of the ordinal patterns succeeding a given ordinal ...

Comparison Non-Parametric Machine Learning Algorithms for Prediction of Employee Talent
Classification of ordinal data is part of categorical data. Ordinal data consists of features with values based on order or ranking. The use of machine learning methods in Human Resources Management is intended to support decision-making based on ...

Inequality Comparisons with Ordinal Data [PDF]
Non‐intersection of appropriately defined Generalized Lorenz (GL) curves is equivalent to a unanimous ranking of distributions of ordinal data by all Cowell and Flachaire (Economica, 2017) indices of inequality and by a new index based on GL curve areas.
