Table 1.

List with the notation used in Algorithm 1

Symbol Definition
GA, GB
Kernel density coordinates of samples A and B
A, B
pairs of coordinates of samples A and B that will be used
 
to estimate OVL
GxA[i], GyA[i]
index a pair of coordinates of GA,
 
where GxA[i] is the abscissa and
 
GyA[i] is the correspondent ordinate (same to GB and G)
(.)
total number of pairs of coordinates
G
ordered list of points resulting from the union of A and B
P
union of G with new pairs of coordinates,
 
which correspond to jump points between densities
G[i]
indexes a pair of coordinates of G
xnew
new abscissa
ynew
new ordinate
F
final list of pairs of coordinates to estimate OVL
OVL overlapping coefficient between two kernel densities

Symbols are listed in order of appearance in the Algorithm.
