Feb 26, 2013 at 19:21 | comment | added | Peter Flom | That's not a bug, it's a feature! :-). Seriously, isn't this a desirable behavior? | |
Feb 26, 2013 at 18:30 | comment | added | ttnphns | This is because MDS software which converts similarities into dissimilarities do it other way than by formula sqrt(1-similarity). That formula - precisely, sqrt[2(1-similarity)] -- is best to convert Pearson correlation or cosine into euclidean distance, so it isn't universal. | |
