The Underlying Similarity of Diversity Measures Used in

The simplest definition of diversity comes from the answer to the question “how different is everybody from everybody else?” If every chromosome is identical, there is no difference between any two chromosomes and hence there is no diversity in the population. If each chromosome is completely differ ...
