simplicity

[John Chalmers, Divisions of the Tetrachord]

The simplicity of a ratio or set or ratios is the reciprocal of the [Wilson] harmonic complexity.

The simplicity function may be normalized by dividing the values by 1/5 or 1/3 depending upon the context.

See Chapter V of Divisions of the Tetrachord.
