Slow news day metric #105

Closed mas-4 closed 1 month ago

I wonder if the metric is poorly defined still.

I think actually instead of just counting the elements > 0.5 in the matrix we should do a mean. Mean would be affected by outliers which is actually what I want, since days with high correlatives is indicative of a big news day. The biggest news tends not to have a whole lot of creativity in the headlines.

Also, since all numbers in the matrix are normalized between 0.5 and 1 there's not like some extreme outlier problem.

So mean of # > 0.5 / size of matrix?

I think its mostly working, I want to give it a week before I conclude what I should do. Lots of busy news days but it kind of is a busy news day.
