PearsonsCorrelation (Hipparchus 2.0 API)

```
public class PearsonsCorrelation
extends Object
```
Computes Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficients for pairs of arrays or columns of a matrix.
The constructors that take RealMatrix or double[][] arguments generate correlation matrices. The columns of the input matrices are assumed to represent variable values. Correlations are given by the formula:
cor(X, Y) = Σ[(x_i - E(X))(y_i - E(Y))] / [(n - 1)s(X)s(Y)]
where E(X) is the mean of X, E(Y) is the mean of the Y values and s(X), s(Y) are standard deviations.
To compute the correlation coefficient for a single pair of arrays, use PearsonsCorrelation() to construct an instance with no data and then correlation(double[], double[]). Correlation matrices can also be computed directly from an instance with no data using computeCorrelationMatrix(double[][]). In order to use getCorrelationMatrix(), getCorrelationPValues(), or getCorrelationStandardErrors(); however, one of the constructors supplying data or a covariance matrix must be used to create the instance.

public PearsonsCorrelation()
```
    Create a PearsonsCorrelation instance without data.
  - PearsonsCorrelation
```
public PearsonsCorrelation(double[][] data)
```
    Create a PearsonsCorrelation from a rectangular array whose columns represent values of variables to be correlated. Throws MathIllegalArgumentException if the input array does not have at least two columns and two rows. Pairwise correlations are set to NaN if one of the correlates has zero variance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    data - rectangular array with columns representing variables
    
    Throws:
    
    MathIllegalArgumentException - if the input data array is not rectangular with at least two rows and two columns.

```
public PearsonsCorrelation(RealMatrix matrix)
```
    Create a PearsonsCorrelation from a RealMatrix whose columns represent variables to be correlated. Throws MathIllegalArgumentException if the matrix does not have at least two columns and two rows. Pairwise correlations are set to NaN if one of the correlates has zero variance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    matrix - matrix with columns representing variables to correlate
    
    Throws:
    
    MathIllegalArgumentException - if the matrix does not contain sufficient data

    correlation(double[], double[])
  - PearsonsCorrelation
```
public PearsonsCorrelation(Covariance covariance)
```
    Create a PearsonsCorrelation from a Covariance. The correlation matrix is computed by scaling the Covariance's covariance matrix. The Covariance instance must have been created from a data matrix with columns representing variable values.
    
    Parameters:
    
    covariance - Covariance instance
  - PearsonsCorrelation
```
public PearsonsCorrelation(RealMatrix covarianceMatrix,
                           int numberOfObservations)
```
    Create a PearsonsCorrelation from a covariance matrix. The correlation matrix is computed by scaling the covariance matrix.
    
    Parameters:
    
    covarianceMatrix - covariance matrix
    
    numberOfObservations - the number of observations in the dataset used to compute the covariance matrix

  - getCorrelationMatrix
```
public RealMatrix getCorrelationMatrix()
```
    Returns the correlation matrix.
    This method will return null if the argumentless constructor was used to create this instance, even if computeCorrelationMatrix(double[][]) has been called before it is activated.
    
    Returns:
    
    correlation matrix
  - getCorrelationStandardErrors
```
public RealMatrix getCorrelationStandardErrors()
```
    Returns a matrix of standard errors associated with the estimates in the correlation matrix.
    getCorrelationStandardErrors().getEntry(i,j) is the standard error associated with getCorrelationMatrix.getEntry(i,j)
    The formula used to compute the standard error is
    SE_r = ((1 - r²) / (n - 2))^1/2 where r is the estimated correlation coefficient and n is the number of observations in the source dataset.
    
    To use this method, one of the constructors that supply an input matrix must have been used to create this instance.
    
    Returns:
    
    matrix of correlation standard errors
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if this instance was created with no data
  - getCorrelationPValues
```
public RealMatrix getCorrelationPValues()
```
    Returns a matrix of p-values associated with the (two-sided) null hypothesis that the corresponding correlation coefficient is zero.
    getCorrelationPValues().getEntry(i,j) is the probability that a random variable distributed as t_n-2 takes a value with absolute value greater than or equal to
    |r|((n - 2) / (1 - r²))^1/2
    
    The values in the matrix are sometimes referred to as the significance of the corresponding correlation coefficients.
    
    To use this method, one of the constructors that supply an input matrix must have been used to create this instance.
    
    Returns:
    
    matrix of p-values
    
    Throws:
    
    MathIllegalStateException - if an error occurs estimating probabilities
    
    NullPointerException - if this instance was created with no data
