Estimation of the simple correlation coefficient.
This article investigates some unfamiliar properties of the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient for the estimation of simple correlation coefficient. Although Pearson's r is biased, except for limited situations, and the minimum variance unbiased estimator has been proposed in the literature, researchers routinely employ the sample correlation coefficient in their practical applicati...
متن کاملInterval estimation for the normal correlation coefficient
Inference concerning the correlation coefficient of two random variables from the bivariate normal distribution has been investigated by many authors. In particular, Fisher [1915. Frequency distribution of the values of the correlation coefficient in samples from an indefinitely large population. Biometrika 10, 507–521] and Hotelling [1953. New light on the correlation coefficient and its trans...
متن کاملRobust Estimation of the Correlation Coefficient: An Attempt of Survey
Various groups of robust estimators of the correlation coefficient are introduced. The performance of most prospective estimators is examined at contaminated normal distributions both on small and large samples, and the best of the proposed robust estimators are revealed.
متن کاملNonparametric estimation of the concordance correlation coefficient under univariate censoring.
Assessing agreement is often of interest in clinical studies to evaluate the similarity of measurements produced by different raters or methods on the same subjects. Lin's (1989, Biometrics 45, 255-268) concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) has become a popular measure of agreement for correlated continuous outcomes. However, commonly used estimation methods for the CCC do not accommodate c...
متن کاملSerial Correlation Coefficient
In this paper, we investigate the relation between two variables where the one is measured with the ratio or interval scale and the other with the nominal. In this cases, we use from serial correlation coefficient. Computation of some serial coefficient such as biserial and point-biserial coefficient is carried out with some examples and R program.
