Kan Man Yee et al., « Two-Stage Optimal Matching Analysis of Workdays and Workweeks », HAL-SHS : sociologie, ID : 10670/1.ymie4v
We apply Optimal Matching (OM) at two stages for the analysis ofworkdays and workweeks using data from the UK 2000 Time Use Survey. We onlyemploy substitutions but no insertion or deletion when calculating the distance matrixbetween sequences. The costs are defined according to the transitional frequencies ofevents at a given time. Our study demonstrates how OM can be adapted to the numberof periodicities and theoretical concerns of the topic by adjusting its costs andparameters. There are 7 main types of workweeks in the UK and standard workweeksaccount for only 1 in 4 workweeks.
