GoogMeter : Calculation of Indexes

Totals of #Pages Found: by columns - Tot(Obj) by rows - Tot(Prop) overall - Tot

Empirical probabilities: p(Obj) = Tot(Obj) /Tot p(Prop) = Tot(Prop) /Tot

Expected number of pages: E(Obj, Prop) = Tot * p(Obj) * P(Prop)

Indexes: Ind(Obj, Prop) = 100 * N(Obj, Prop) / E(Obj, Prop)
