After reading this short tutorial, you will understand the calculation of Cohen’s Kappa and Fleiss’ Kappa. Further, you also can inference the result and assign the level of agreement between raters.

Cohen’s Kappa

Cohen’s Kappa is a metric used to measure the agreement of two raters. For instance, for two raters, they are asked to give 3 labels (A, B, or C) for 10 participants based on the participant’s skills. Using Cohen’s Kappa, we can measure the level of agreement. Theoretically, Cohen’s Kappa is often used:

• To measure the level of agreement between two raters on classifying the objects into a given…

The basic theory of k-Modes

In the real world, the data might be having different data types, such as numerical and categorical data. To perform a certain analysis, for instance, clustering analysis, we should consider the data type in the data we have. The clustering algorithm commonly used in clustering techniques and efficiently used for large data is k-Means. But, it only works for the numerical data. It’s actually not suitable for the data that contains the categorical data type. So, Huang proposed an algorithm called k-Modes which is created in order to handle clustering algorithms with the categorical data type.

The modification of k-Modes…

The idea behind the Factor Analysis (FA)

Factor analysis is a linear statistical model that aims to describe a set of m variables in terms of a smaller number of p factors and to highlight the relationship between these variables. Factor analysis is similar to Principal Component Analysis (PCA).

The factor analysis helps the analyst to make an interpretation among the variables in the data into a set of factors. Factors consist…
