摘要
We propose a non parametric hypothesis test to compare two partitions of a same data set. The partitions may result from two different clustering approaches. The test may be done using any comparison index but we focus in particular on the Matching Error (ME) that is related to the misclassification error in supervised learning. Some properties of the ME and, especially, its distribution function for the case of two different partitions are analyzed. Extensive simulations and experiments show the efficiency of the test.
