bdCorr_matrix

Compute correlation matrix for in-memory matrices (unified function)

LINEAR_ALGEBRA

1 Description

Compute Pearson or Spearman correlation matrix for matrices that fit in memory. This function automatically detects whether to compute:

2 Usage

bdCorr_matrix(X, Y = NULL, trans_x = NULL, trans_y = NULL, method = NULL, use_complete_obs = NULL, compute_pvalues = NULL, threads = NULL)

3 Arguments

Parameter Description
X First numeric matrix (observations in rows, variables in columns)
Y Second numeric matrix (optional, observations in rows, variables in columns)
trans_x Logical, whether to transpose matrix X (default: FALSE)
trans_y Logical, whether to transpose matrix Y (default: FALSE, ignored if Y not provided)
method Character string indicating correlation method (“pearson” or “spearman”, default: “pearson”)
use_complete_obs Logical, whether to use only complete observations (default: TRUE)
compute_pvalues Logical, whether to compute p-values for correlations (default: TRUE)
threads Integer, number of threads for parallel computation (optional, default: -1 for auto)

4 Value

A list containing correlation results

5 Examples

\donttest{
set.seed(123)
X <- matrix(rnorm(1000), nrow = 100, ncol = 10)

# Single matrix correlation
res <- bdCorr_matrix(X)

# Transposed (sample-sample correlations)
res_t <- bdCorr_matrix(X, trans_x = TRUE)

# Cross-correlation with a second matrix
Y <- matrix(rnorm(400), nrow = 100, ncol = 4)
res_xy <- bdCorr_matrix(X, Y)
