摘要 There are several indices for measuring the similarity of two populations, including the ratio of the number of shared species to the number of distinct species (Jaccard`s index) and the conditional probability of observing a shared species (Smith et al., 1996). However, these indices only take into account the number of species and species proportions of shared species. In this article, we propose a new similarity index which includes the species proportions of both the shared and non shared species in each population, and also propose a Nonparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimator (NPMLE) for this index. Bootstrap and delta methods are used to evaluate the standard errors of the NPMLE. Based on a loss function, we also compare a class of nonparametric estimators for the proposed index in various situations.
