python-dcor 0.6

Distance correlation and related E-statistics in Python

dcor is 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]

Installation

Install python-dcor 0.6 as follows:

guix install python-dcor@0.6

Or install the latest version:

guix install python-dcor

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
