+The <b>Estimated kappa value</b> in <em>r.kappa</em> is the value
+only for one class, i.e. the observed agreement between the
+classifications for those observations that have been classified by
+classifier 1 into the class i. In other words, here the choice of
+reference is important.

+It is calculated as:

+<ul>
+<li>pii[i] is the probability of agreeement (i.e. number of pixels for which there is agreement divided by total number of assessed pixels)</li>
