Correlation coefficients and p values for all pairs of rows of a matrix
The most consice way of doing it might be the buildin method .corr
in pandas
, to get r:
In [79]:
import pandas as pd
m=np.random.random((6,6))
df=pd.DataFrame(m)
print df.corr()
0 1 2 3 4 5
0 1.000000 -0.282780 0.455210 -0.377936 -0.850840 0.190545
1 -0.282780 1.000000 -0.747979 -0.461637 0.270770 0.008815
2 0.455210 -0.747979 1.000000 -0.137078 -0.683991 0.557390
3 -0.377936 -0.461637 -0.137078 1.000000 0.511070 -0.801614
4 -0.850840 0.270770 -0.683991 0.511070 1.000000 -0.499247
5 0.190545 0.008815 0.557390 -0.801614 -0.499247 1.000000
To get p values using t-test:
In [84]:
n=6
r=df.corr()
t=r*np.sqrt((n-2)/(1-r*r))
import scipy.stats as ss
ss.t.cdf(t, n-2)
Out[84]:

1. ]])
In [85]:
ss.pearsonr(m[:,0], m[:,1])
Out[85]:
(-0.28277983892175751, 0.58713640696703184)

#be careful about the difference of 1-tail test and 2-tail test:

Out[86]:

Also you can just use the scipy.stats.pearsonr
you mentioned in OP:
In [95]:
#returns a list of tuples of (r, p, index1, index2)
import itertools
[ss.pearsonr(m[:,i],m[:,j])+(i, j) for i, j in itertools.product(range(n), range(n))]

I have encountered the same problem today.
After half an hour of googling, I can't find any code in numpy/scipy library can help me do this.
So I wrote my own version of corrcoef
import numpy as np
from scipy.stats import pearsonr, betai
def corrcoef(matrix):
r = np.corrcoef(matrix)
rf = r[np.triu_indices(r.shape[0], 1)]
df = matrix.shape[1] - 2
ts = rf * rf * (df / (1 - rf * rf))
pf = betai(0.5 * df, 0.5, df / (df + ts))
p = np.zeros(shape=r.shape)
p[np.triu_indices(p.shape[0], 1)] = pf
p[np.tril_indices(p.shape[0], -1)] = p.T[np.tril_indices(p.shape[0], -1)]
p[np.diag_indices(p.shape[0])] = np.ones(p.shape[0])
return r, p
def corrcoef_loop(matrix):
rows, cols = matrix.shape[0], matrix.shape[1]
r = np.ones(shape=(rows, rows))
p = np.ones(shape=(rows, rows))
for i in range(rows):
for j in range(i+1, rows):
r_, p_ = pearsonr(matrix[i], matrix[j])
r[i, j] = r[j, i] = r_
p[i, j] = p[j, i] = p_
return r, p
The first version use the result of np.corrcoef, and then calculate p-value based on triangle-upper values of corrcoef matrix.
The second loop version just iterating over rows, do pearsonr manually.
def test_corrcoef():
a = np.array([
[1, 2, 3, 4],
[1, 3, 1, 4],
[8, 3, 8, 5],
[2, 3, 2, 1]])
r1, p1 = corrcoef(a)
r2, p2 = corrcoef_loop(a)
assert np.allclose(r1, r2)
assert np.allclose(p1, p2)
The test passed, they are the same.
def test_timing():
import time
a = np.random.randn(100, 2500)
def timing(func, *args, **kwargs):
t0 = time.time()
loops = 10
for _ in range(loops):
func(*args, **kwargs)
print('{} takes {} seconds loops={}'.format(
func.__name__, time.time() - t0, loops))
timing(corrcoef, a)
timing(corrcoef_loop, a)
if __name__ == '__main__':
test_corrcoef()
test_timing()
The performance on my Macbook against 100x2500 matrix
corrcoef takes 0.06608104705810547 seconds loops=10
corrcoef_loop takes 7.585600137710571 seconds loops=10
Sort of hackish and possibly inefficient, but I think this could be what you're looking for:
import scipy.spatial.distance as dist
import scipy.stats as ss
# Pearson's correlation coefficients
print dist.squareform(dist.pdist(data, lambda x, y: ss.pearsonr(x, y)[0]))
# p-values
print dist.squareform(dist.pdist(data, lambda x, y: ss.pearsonr(x, y)[1]))
Scipy's pdist is a very helpful function, which is primarily meant for finding Pairwise distances between observations in n-dimensional space.
But it allows user defined callable 'distance metrics', which can be exploited to carry out any kind of pair-wise operation. The result is returned in a condensed distance matrix form, which can be easily changed to the square matrix form using Scipy's 'squareform' function.
