CorrelationAnalysis

class CorrelationAnalysis(*args)

Correlation analysis methods.

Provides elementary sensitivity analysis methods to determine the influence of each component of a random vector over a single one-dimensional variable.

Parameters:
firstSample2-d list of float

Values taken by a random vector.

secondSample2-d list of float

Values taken by a single one-dimensional random variable.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> firstSample = ot.Normal(3).getSample(100)
>>> model = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x', 'y', 'z'], ['x + 3 * y - 5 * z'])
>>> secondSample = model(firstSample)
>>> corr_analysis = ot.CorrelationAnalysis(firstSample, secondSample)
>>> print(corr_analysis.computePearsonCorrelation())
