Comparison of functional regions of permanent migration and commuting in Slovenia

In the bachelor's thesis we modelled and compared the functional regions in Slovenia based on\ud permanent migrations and commuting. The analysis was carried out for each year in the period from\ud 2008 to 2014. We acquired data about migration and commuting between the municipalities in\ud Slovenia from the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SURS, 2015a, 2015b, 2015c). The\ud functional regions were modelled using the Intramax method. To compare the systems of hierarchical\ud functional regions we adapted and applied the Fowlkes-Mallows index (Fowlkes and Mallows, 1983;\ud Wallas, 1983). The modelling and the comparison of functional regions were conducted by means of\ud programming code in the Mathematica 10.2 software tool (Drobne and Lakner, 2016). Th
