All Known Implementing Classes:
SMAggregateKMaximumImpl

public interface SMAggregateKMaximum extends SMAggregateWeighted
The k-maximum aggregation is a generalization of the standard maximum aggregation. The k highest local similarity value determines the global similarity. Hence, if k out of n attributes indicate a high utility, the overall utility for the whole case is high.

Φ(s, …, si) = maxniki · sik) with (ωi · sik) ≥ (ωi · sik)
