pearsonr(x, y)
 Calculates a Pearson correlation coefficient and the p-value for testing
 non-correlation.

 The Pearson correlation coefficient measures the linear relationship
 between two datasets. Strictly speaking, Pearson's correlation requires
 that each dataset be normally distributed. Like other correlation
 coefficients, this one varies between -1 and +1 with 0 implying no
 correlation. Correlations of -1 or +1 imply an exact linear
 relationship. Positive correlations imply that as x increases, so does
 y. Negative correlations imply that as x increases, y decreases.

 The p-value roughly indicates the probability of an uncorrelated system
 producing datasets that have a Pearson correlation at least as extreme
 as the one computed from these datasets. The p-values are not entirely
 reliable but are probably reasonable for datasets larger than 500 or so.

 Parameters
 ----------
 x : 1D array
 y : 1D array the same length as x

 Returns
 -------
 (Pearson's correlation coefficient,
  2-tailed p-value)

你可以用pandas.DataFrame这样做。相关系数:

import pandas as pd
a = [[1, 2, 3],
     [5, 6, 9],
     [5, 6, 11],
     [5, 6, 13],
     [5, 3, 13]]
df = pd.DataFrame(data=a)
df.corr()

这给了

1  0.745601  1.000000  0.544248

def correlation_score(y_true, y_pred):
    """Scores the predictions according to the competition rules. 
    
    It is assumed that the predictions are not constant.

    y2 = y_pred.copy()
    y2 -= y2.mean(axis=0);    y2 /= y2.std(axis=0) 
    y1 = y_true.copy(); 
    y1 -= y1.mean(axis=0);    y1 /= y1.std(axis=0) 
        
    c = (y1*y2).mean().mean()# Correlation for rescaled matrices is just matrix product and average 
        
    return c

对此,我有一个非常简单易懂的解决方案。对于两个长度相等的数组,Pearson系数可以很容易地计算如下:

def manual_pearson(a,b):
"""
Accepts two arrays of equal length, and computes correlation coefficient. 
Numerator is the sum of product of (a - a_avg) and (b - b_avg), 
while denominator is the product of a_std and b_std multiplied by 
length of array. 
"""
  a_avg, b_avg = np.average(a), np.average(b)
  a_stdev, b_stdev = np.std(a), np.std(b)
  n = len(a)
  denominator = a_stdev * b_stdev * n
  numerator = np.sum(np.multiply(a-a_avg, b-b_avg))
  p_coef = numerator/denominator
  return p_coef
