Optimal Matching Analysis
Optimal matching analysis measures how dissimilar two categorical sequences are by computing the minimum total cost of editing one sequence into the other through substitution and insertion/deletion operations. Borrowed from computer science and molecular biology and introduced to sociology by Andrew Abbott, it supplies the pairwise distances that underpin sequence analysis of careers, family histories, and other life-course trajectories.
