Constructor Detail

NormalizedMutualInformation

public NormalizedMutualInformation(java.lang.String marker)

New NMI measure, using the given marker for the dynamically performed assignment, and the default marker for the reference assignment.

Parameters:

marker - name of the attribute marking the computed communities.

NormalizedMutualInformation
