Abstract excerpt
Reproducible and discriminating typing methods are required for epidemiological investigations. Numerical typing systems analyse patterns obtained in various ways by calculating similarity coefficients between isolates. In the present study, various measures of the efficiency of a numerical typing system are quantified. These include reproducibility, accuracy, and discrimination power. Three different numerical...
