The Percent Maximum Difference (PMD).[1], is an association measure similar in intent to Cramér's V[2][3], that quantifies how similar or different columns are based on the composition of the rows of a contingency table. It takes as input a count matrix (of any m x n dimensionality), and yields a correlation-like metric between 0 and 1 indicating how similar (0) or dissimilar (1) the columns are, based on the composition of the rows. It was introduced due to several properties that distinguish it from other approaches including bias corrected[3] Cramér's V[2], Chi-squared, or Chi-squared's -log10(p-value), including: linearity[1], robustness to differences in the Poisson sampling depth of the columns (after bias correction)[1], and robustness to differences in the number of rows given that relative composition is unchanged[1]

Usage and interpretation[edit]

PMD was originally introduced[1] for quantification of batch-to-batch (column) similarity/difference based on cluster (row) composition in unsupervised clustering analyses in single-cell RNAseq data. A value of 0 indicates that batches (columns) of the contingency table have near identical cluster (row) composition, and a PMD value of 1 indicates that batches (columns) are completely different, and share no similarity in the composition of the clusters (rows).
