  2. Coefficient of multiple correlation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_multiple...

    The coefficient of multiple correlation is known as the square root of the coefficient of determination, but under the particular assumptions that an intercept is included and that the best possible linear predictors are used, whereas the coefficient of determination is defined for more general cases, including those of nonlinear prediction and those in which the predicted values have not been ...

  3. Total correlation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_correlation

    Total correlation quantifies the amount of dependence among a group of variables. A near-zero total correlation indicates that the variables in the group are essentially statistically independent; they are completely unrelated, in the sense that knowing the value of one variable does not provide any clue as to the values of the other variables.

  4. Correlation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation

    The correlation coefficient is +1 in the case of a perfect direct (increasing) linear relationship (correlation), −1 in the case of a perfect inverse (decreasing) linear relationship (anti-correlation), [5] and some value in the open interval (,) in all other cases, indicating the degree of linear dependence between the variables. As it ...

  5. Interaction information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaction_information

    In probability theory and information theory, the interaction information is a generalization of the mutual information for more than two variables. There are many names for interaction information, including amount of information , [ 1 ] information correlation , [ 2 ] co-information , [ 3 ] and simply mutual information . [ 4 ]

  6. Bivariate analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bivariate_analysis

    A bivariate correlation is a measure of whether and how two variables covary linearly, that is, whether the variance of one changes in a linear fashion as the variance of the other changes. Covariance can be difficult to interpret across studies because it depends on the scale or level of measurement used.

  7. Covariance and correlation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covariance_and_correlation

    With any number of random variables in excess of 1, the variables can be stacked into a random vector whose i th element is the i th random variable. Then the variances and covariances can be placed in a covariance matrix, in which the (i, j) element is the covariance between the i th random variable and the j th one.

  8. Causal model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causal_model

    Judea Pearl defines a causal model as an ordered triple ,, , where U is a set of exogenous variables whose values are determined by factors outside the model; V is a set of endogenous variables whose values are determined by factors within the model; and E is a set of structural equations that express the value of each endogenous variable as a function of the values of the other variables in U ...

  9. Interaction (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaction_(statistics)

    Interaction effect of education and ideology on concern about sea level rise. In statistics, an interaction may arise when considering the relationship among three or more variables, and describes a situation in which the effect of one causal variable on an outcome depends on the state of a second causal variable (that is, when effects of the two causes are not additive).
