as a research psychologist, I’ve got one small study here, one small study there. Individually they don’t give enough statistical power, but can they do it together? So can we combine Study A and Study B to get enough statistical power for my research question?
Word Movers Distance is a candidate but it's not necessarily how we solve it. It might be too slow for example.
Maybe a simple solution is just to have a threshold and we report the number of questions in Instrument A matching questions in Instrument B at that threshold.
Description
Eve Cheng has done some experiments with the Word Movers Distance algorithm which gives the distance between two sequences of sentence embeddings.
Can Harmony use this to say that the GAD-7 is e.g. 60% similar to the PHQ-9?
See Colab notebook: https://github.com/harmonydata/experiments/blob/main/harmony_wmd_experiment.ipynb
We also have a demo of Harmony integrated with external data sources: https://harmonycataloguelookup.azurewebsites.net/

Rationale
The use case would be:
Word Movers Distance is a candidate but it's not necessarily how we solve it. It might be too slow for example.
Maybe a simple solution is just to have a threshold and we report the number of questions in Instrument A matching questions in Instrument B at that threshold.
