Peer reviewedMongeau, Marcel; Sankoff, David – Computers and the Humanities, 1990
Quantifies and confirms subjective impressions of similarity and differences in musical monophonic scores. Adapts concepts from sequence comparison theory and uses algorithms to define distances between any two melodies created by tone and rhythmic structure. Presents and applies a generalized algorithm for identifying locally similar portions in…

Peer reviewedTrochim, Wilham M. K. – Evaluation Review, 1985
Two quasiexperimental designs--nonequivalent dependent variable and reversed treatment designs--illustrate pattern matching logic as a basis for evaluation, examining college health services. Three pattern matches are significant: (1) program pattern match indicates implementation; (2) measurement match assesses test validity; and (3) effect…
