Tecken för covarians In probability theory and statistics, a covariance matrix (also known as auto-covariance matrix, dispersion matrix, variance matrix, or variance–covariance matrix) is a square matrix giving the covariance between each pair of elements of a given random vector. 1 standardavvikelse 2 In probability theory and statistics, the mathematical concepts of covariance and correlation are very similar. [1] [2] Both describe the degree to which two random variables or sets of random variables tend to deviate from their expected values in similar ways. 3 varians räkneregler 4 1 E [X] = sum (x1 * p1, x2 * p2, x3 * p3, , xn * pn) In simple cases, such as the flipping of a coin or rolling a dice, the probability of each event is just as likely. Therefore, the expected value can be calculated as the sum of all values multiplied by the reciprocal of the number of values. 1 E [X] = sum (x1, x2, x3, , xn). 1/n. 5 Our next result is the computational formula for covariance: the expected value of the outer product of X and Y minus the outer product of the expected values. cov(X, Y) = E(XYT) − E(X)[E(Y)]T. Proof. The next result is the matrix version of the symmetry property. cov(Y, X) = [cov(X, Y)]T. Proof. 6 Covariance is a measure of the relationship between two random variables, in statistics. The covariance indicates the relation between the two variables and helps to know if the two variables vary together. In the covariance formula, the covariance between two random variables X and Y can be denoted as Cov (X, Y).
