Hi,
Pearson coefficient measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables.
For example :
x = randn(6,1);
y = randn(6,1);
A = [x y 2*y+3];
R = corrcoef(A)
R = 3×3
1.0000 -0.7991 -0.7991 -0.7991 1.0000 1.0000 -0.7991 1.0000 1.0000
As you can see that there is a linear relation between second and third element of the A, this is information is given by "corrcoef" function.
Thus, it is not possible to capture this relation in a single vector.
