Summary/Abstract: In the following work we presented a method of using radar charts to calculate measures of conformability of two objects according to formulasgiven by, among others, Dice, Jaccard, Tanimoto and Tversky. This method incorporates another one presented by the authors of this study [Binderman, Borkowski, Szczesny 2010]. Presented methods can be also utilized to define similarities between given objects, as well as to order and group objects. Measures described in this work satisfy the condition of stability as they do not depend on the order of studied features.
