Similarity Matrix

A similarity matrix expresses the similarity between two data points. This similarity matrix is for a collection of ten bacterial strains. These strains have been ordered so that we are able to see which ones most clearly resemble one another in their overall phenotype. We can see that strains 6 and 3 match each others phenotype 100 percent. And the lowest percentage of resemblance can be seen between 3 and 5, 3 and 9, as well as 3 and10. http://www.jbaas.com/HTML/Previous%20Issues/Volume%20No.%202%20No.%202/Headings/H-7.html
