Unification of certain criteria of association by linearization and normalization. (Unification de certains critères d’association par linéarisation et normalisation.) (French) Zbl 0972.62521
Summary: This paper reviews some measures of association. We will not try to review this literature here. Instead, we develop a much broader class of possible comparison measures based on the concepts of paired comparison and normalization. This structure clarifies connections between several traditional indices.
