---|---|---|
A. Two-state comparison | ||
Match | pc = 1 − pe = 1 − pen | pf |
No match | pe = pen | pn = 1 − pf |
B. Three-state comparison | ||
Full match | pc = 1 − pe = 1 − pep − pen | pf |
Partial (but not full) match | pep | ppnf = pp − pf |
No match | pen | pn = 1 − pp |
C. Four-state comparison | ||
Full match | pc = 1 − pe = 1 − pep1 − pep2np1 − pen | pf |
Partial match type 1 (but not full) | pep1 | pp1nf = pp1 − pf |
Partial match type 2 (but not full or partial type 1) | pep2np1 | pp2np1 |
No match | pen | pn = 1 − pp = 1 − pp2np1 − pp2nf |
D. Adjustments for unordered multi-identifier comparison | ||
For 1 ≤ c ≤ min(n, m) “positive” comparisons between proband identifiers 1…n and candidate identifiers 1…m † | × 1, no correction | \(\times \prod^{c-1}_{i=0} \left(m-i\right)\) |
E. Adjustments for ordered multi-identifier comparison | ||
For c ≥ 1 “positive” comparisons, m > 1, and strict order match | × po | × 1, no correction |
For c ≥ 1 “positive” comparisons, m > 1, and order mismatch † | × pu = 1 − po | \(\times \left(\left[\prod^{c-1}_{i=0} \left(m-i\right)\right]-1\right)\) |
