dcor: distance correlation and related E-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 dcor

It is also available for conda:

conda install -c vnmabus dcor

Requirements

dcor is available in Python 3.5 or above and in Python 2.7, in all operating systems.
