Mapping ontology vertices to a line using hypergraph framework
As a conceptual semantic tool, ontology is widely used in many disciplines such as genetics, nutrition, and social sciences. The key issues for ontology applications are similarity calculations and ontology alignment.

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

An Energy-Based Similarity Measure for Time Series
A new similarity measure, called SimilB, for time series analysis, based on the cross-ΨB-energy operator (2004), is introduced. ΨB is a nonlinear measure which quantifies the interaction between two time series.

Maximally Consistent Sampling and the Jaccard Index of Probability Distributions
We introduce simple, efficient algorithms for computing a MinHash of a probability distribution, suitable for both sparse and dense data, with equivalent running times to the state of the art for both cases.

ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden.

Cosine Similarity Measure According to a Convex Cost Function [PDF]
In this paper, we describe a new vector similarity measure associated with a convex cost function. Given two vectors, we determine the surface normals of the convex function at the vectors.

A multiple-site similarity measure [PDF]
Abstract Similarity measures are among the most intuitive and common measures for comparing two or more sites, or samples, with respect to their species overlap. A restriction of similarity measures is that they are limited to pairwise comparisons even in a multiple-site study.

Decision Making Based on Some similarity Measures under Interval Rough Neutrosophic Environment [PDF]
This paper is devoted to propose cosine, Dice and Jaccard similarity measures of interval rough neutrosophic set and interval neutrosophic mean operator. Some of the properties of the proposed similarity measures have been established.
