Computation of correlation and variance-covariance matrices follows the general schema described in Algorithms:
Step 1 - on Local Nodes
In this step, the correlation and variance-covariance matrices algorithm accepts the input described below. Pass the Input ID as a parameter to the methods that provide input for your algorithm. For more details, see Algorithms.
Input ID |
Input |
---|---|
data |
Pointer to the numeric table of size that represents the i-th data block on the local node. While the input for defaultDense, singlePassDense, or sumDense method can be an object of any class derived from NumericTable, the input for fastCSR, singlePassCSR, or sumCSR method can only be an object of the CSRNumericTable class. |
In this step, the correlation and variance-covariance matrices algorithm calculates the results described below. Pass the Result ID as a parameter to the methods that access the results of your algorithm. For more details, see Algorithms.
Result ID |
Result |
---|---|
nObservations |
Pointer to the numeric table that contains the number of observations processed so far on the local node.
NOTE:
By default, this result is an object of the HomogenNumericTable class, but you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except CSRNumericTable.
|
crossProduct |
Pointer to numeric table with the cross-product matrix computed so far on the local node.
NOTE:
By default, this table is an object of the HomogenNumericTable class, but you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except PackedSymmetricMatrix, PackedTriangularMatrix, and CSRNumericTable.
|
sum |
Pointer to numeric table with partial sums computed so far on the local node.
NOTE:
By default, this table is an object of the HomogenNumericTable class, but you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except PackedSymmetricMatrix, PackedTriangularMatrix, and CSRNumericTable.
|
Step 2 - on Master Node
In this step, the correlation and variance-covariance matrices algorithm accepts the input described below. Pass the Input ID as a parameter to the methods that provide input for your algorithm. For more details, see Algorithms.
Input ID |
Input |
---|---|
partialResults |
A collection that contains results computed in Step 1 on local nodes (nObservations, crossProduct, and sum).
NOTE:
The collection can contain objects of any class derived from the NumericTable class except PackedSymmetricMatrix and PackedTriangularMatrix.
|
In this step, the correlation and variance-covariance matrices algorithm calculates the results described in the following table. Pass the Result ID as a parameter to the methods that access the results of your algorithm. For more details, see Algorithms.
Result ID |
Result |
---|---|
covariance |
Use when outputMatrixType``=``covarianceMatrix. Pointer to the numeric table with the variance-covariance matrix.
NOTE:
By default, this result is an object of the HomogenNumericTable class, but you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except PackedTriangularMatrix and CSRNumericTable.
|
correlation |
Use when outputMatrixType``=``correlationMatrix. Pointer to the numeric table with the correlation matrix.
NOTE:
By default, this result is an object of the HomogenNumericTable class, but you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except PackedTriangularMatrix and CSRNumericTable.
|
mean |
Pointer to the numeric table with means.
NOTE:
By default, this result is an object of the HomogenNumericTable class, but you can define the result as an object of any class derived from NumericTable except PackedTriangularMatrix, PackedSymmetricMatrix, and CSRNumericTable.
