Subject field(s)
  • Statistical Graphs and Diagrams
CONT

In a cross-classified table, which means that characteristics are not only in the rows, but also in the columns, conditions are only applied to the axes. The axes span across the border of the matrix and all cells are displayed for which both the rows and the columns correspond to the active conditions.

[The study] recommends the use of stage-structured models in which stages are embedded within age classes. This effectively increases the number of stages in a model. Such a population matrix can be constructed if one collects information on the stage of individuals in addition to age in order to construct a life table in which individuals are categorized into different age and stage classes. This approach is also useful when life history strategies are complex or when they do not exhibit age-dependent changes in vital rates.

Record 5 2002-03-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
CONT

Contingency Table. A table that compares mapped data with ground data to determine accuracy. The "known" classes derived from accuracy assessment plots are compared to the classes derived from photo interpretation. The results are then tabulated in the form of a contingency table to determine the degree of misclassification that has occurred between classes. Also referred to as error matrix, confusion matrix, or misclassification matrix.

OBS

confusion matrix; error matrix: terms officially approved by the RADARSAT-2 Terminology Approval Group (RTAG).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Télédétection
CONT

À cet effet, afin d'évaluer la précision de la classification réalisée, il est nécessaire de réaliser une matrice de confusion telle que définie par Story et Congalton (1986). Pour chaque classe d'habitats, elle indique le pourcentage de pixels de l'ensemble de référence qui se classe correctement ainsi que la répartition des pixels dont la classe résultante diffère de la classe de référence. On peut ainsi analyser les sources de confusion entre les classes et tenter d'expliquer ces phénomènes.

OBS

matrice de confusion : terme uniformisé par le Groupe de travail de la terminologie de RADARSAT-2 (GTTR).

... a large table, with project activities and events listed along one dimension and specific environmental components along the other. If an interaction is expected between a particular project activity or event and a specific environmental component(e. g., a species), then the appropriate box in the matrix is marked. Once the matrix is complete, it becomes clear that certain project activities and environmental components are severely implicated.
