Predictability and Correlation in Human Metrology
... To perform prediction for an unknown measurement, say X , we involve only the measurements that share some edge with X in the correlation graph, i.e., the members in the subset XCG = {Y |τ < |ρXY |}, where τ is the threshold. The second approach would be to use those measurements that minimize the e ...
