Jaccard/Tanimoto similarity test and estimation methods for biological presence-absence data

Abstract Background A survey of presences and absences of specific species across multiple biogeographic units (or bioregions) are used in a broad area of biological studies from ecology to microbiology. Using binary presence-absence data, we evaluate species co-occurrences that help elucidate relat...
