dcor
dcor: distance correlation and energy statistics in Python.
E-statistics are functions of distances between statistical observations in metric spaces.
Distance covariance and distance correlation are dependency measures between random vectors introduced in [SRB07] with a simple E-statistic estimator.
This package offers functions for calculating several E-statistics such as:
Estimator of the energy distance [SR13].
Biased and unbiased estimators of distance covariance and distance correlation [SRB07].
Estimators of the partial distance covariance and partial distance covariance [SR14].
It also provides tests based on these E-statistics:
Test of homogeneity based on the energy distance.
Test of independence based on distance covariance.
Installation
dcor is on PyPi and can be installed using pip:
pip install dcorIt is also available for conda using the conda-forge channel:
conda install -c conda-forge dcorPrevious versions of the package were in the vnmabus channel. This
channel will not be updated with new releases, and users are recommended to
use the conda-forge channel.
Requirements
dcor is available in Python 3.8 or above in all operating systems. The package dcor depends on the following libraries:
numpy
numba >= 0.51
scipy
joblib
