With classical external indexes, it is possible to quantify how similar two disjoint clustering solutions are, where each object can only belong to a single cluster.

In this study, we propose a new index based on an intuitive probabilistic approach that is applicable to overlapped clusters. Given that recently there has been a remarkable increase in the analysis of data with naturally overlapped clusters, this new index allows to comparing clustering algorithms correctly. After presenting the new index, experiments with artificial and real datasets are shown and analyzed. Results over a real social network are also presented and discussed. The results indicate that the new index can correctly measure the similarity between two partitions of the dataset when there are different levels of overlap in the analyzed clusters.},
