Property Value

Type: Double

Return Value

Type: Double
Remarks
As Pearson’s Correlation does some averaging of pixel information and can return negative values another method, the Overlap Coefficient, is simultaneously used to describe overlap. This method does not perform any pixel averaging functions, so correlations are returned as values between 0 and 1. This method is not sensitive to intensity variations in the image analysis. This is especially important when considering issues such as camera quantum efficiency, hybridization efficiency and sample photobleaching.
