dc.description.abstract | In the first part of this paper we define the n-overlap vector whose coordinates consist of the fraction of the objects (e.g. books, N-grams,…) that belong to 1, 2,…, n sets (more generally: families) (e.g. libraries, databases,…). With the aid of the Lorenz concentration theory we build a theory of n-overlap similarity and corresponding measures, such as the generalized Jaccard index (generalizing the well-known Jaccard index in case ). n=2 Next we determine the distributional form of the n-overlap vector assuming certain distributions of the object’s and of the set (family)-sizes. In this section the decreasing power law and decreasing exponential distribution is explained for the n-overlap vector. Both item (token) n-overlap and source (type) n-overlap are studied. The final section is devoted to the n-overlap properties of objects indexed by a hierarchical system (e.g. books indexed by numbers from a UDC or Dewey system or by N-grams). We show that the results of Section II can be applied here. We also show that the Lorenz-order of the n-overlap vector is respected by an increase or a decrease of the level of refinement in the hierarchical system (e.g. the value N in N-grams). | - |
