与其依赖numpy/scipy，我认为我的答案应该是最容易编码和理解计算Pearson相关系数(PCC)的步骤。

import math

# calculates the mean
def mean(x):
    sum = 0.0
    for i in x:
         sum += i
    return sum / len(x) 

# calculates the sample standard deviation
def sampleStandardDeviation(x):
    sumv = 0.0
    for i in x:
         sumv += (i - mean(x))**2
    return math.sqrt(sumv/(len(x)-1))

# calculates the PCC using both the 2 functions above
def pearson(x,y):
    scorex = []
    scorey = []

    for i in x: 
        scorex.append((i - mean(x))/sampleStandardDeviation(x)) 

    for j in y:
        scorey.append((j - mean(y))/sampleStandardDeviation(y))

# multiplies both lists together into 1 list (hence zip) and sums the whole list   
    return (sum([i*j for i,j in zip(scorex,scorey)]))/(len(x)-1)

PCC的意义基本上是向你展示两个变量/列表的相关性有多强。 需要注意的是，PCC值的范围是-1到1。 0到1之间的值表示正相关。 0值=最高变异(没有任何相关性)。 -1到0之间的值表示负相关。

您可能想知道如何在寻找特定方向的相关性(负相关或正相关)的上下文中解释您的概率。这是我写的一个函数。它甚至可能是正确的!

这是基于我从http://www.vassarstats.net/rsig.html和http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student%27s_t_distribution上收集到的信息，感谢这里发布的其他答案。

# Given (possibly random) variables, X and Y, and a correlation direction,
# returns:
#  (r, p),
# where r is the Pearson correlation coefficient, and p is the probability
# that there is no correlation in the given direction.
#
# direction:
#  if positive, p is the probability that there is no positive correlation in
#    the population sampled by X and Y
#  if negative, p is the probability that there is no negative correlation
#  if 0, p is the probability that there is no correlation in either direction
def probabilityNotCorrelated(X, Y, direction=0):
    x = len(X)
    if x != len(Y):
        raise ValueError("variables not same len: " + str(x) + ", and " + \
                         str(len(Y)))
    if x < 6:
        raise ValueError("must have at least 6 samples, but have " + str(x))
    (corr, prb_2_tail) = stats.pearsonr(X, Y)

    if not direction:
        return (corr, prb_2_tail)

    prb_1_tail = prb_2_tail / 2
    if corr * direction > 0:
        return (corr, prb_1_tail)

    return (corr, 1 - prb_1_tail)

Pearson coefficient calculation using pandas in python: I would suggest trying this approach since your data contains lists. It will be easy to interact with your data and manipulate it from the console since you can visualise your data structure and update it as you wish. You can also export the data set and save it and add new data out of the python console for later analysis. This code is simpler and contains less lines of code. I am assuming you need a few quick lines of code to screen your data for further analysis

例子:

data = {'list 1':[2,4,6,8],'list 2':[4,16,36,64]}

import pandas as pd #To Convert your lists to pandas data frames convert your lists into pandas dataframes

df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns = ['list 1','list 2'])

from scipy import stats # For in-built method to get PCC

pearson_coef, p_value = stats.pearsonr(df["list 1"], df["list 2"]) #define the columns to perform calculations on
print("Pearson Correlation Coefficient: ", pearson_coef, "and a P-value of:", p_value) # Results 

但是，在分析之前，你没有发布你的数据给我看数据集的大小或可能需要的转换。

相关性-衡量两个不同变量的相似性

使用皮尔逊相关

from scipy.stats import pearsonr
# final_data is the dataframe with n set of columns
pearson_correlation = final_data.corr(method='pearson')
pearson_correlation
# print correlation of n*n column

使用斯皮尔曼相关

from scipy.stats import spearmanr
# final_data is the dataframe with n set of columns
spearman_correlation = final_data.corr(method='spearman')
spearman_correlation
# print correlation of n*n column

使用Kendall相关

kendall_correlation=final_data.corr(method='kendall')
kendall_correlation

下面是mkh答案的一个变体，比它运行得快得多，还有scipy.stats。皮尔逊，使用numba。

import numba

@numba.jit
def corr(data1, data2):
    M = data1.size

    sum1 = 0.
    sum2 = 0.
    for i in range(M):
        sum1 += data1[i]
        sum2 += data2[i]
    mean1 = sum1 / M
    mean2 = sum2 / M

    var_sum1 = 0.
    var_sum2 = 0.
    cross_sum = 0.
    for i in range(M):
        var_sum1 += (data1[i] - mean1) ** 2
        var_sum2 += (data2[i] - mean2) ** 2
        cross_sum += (data1[i] * data2[i])

    std1 = (var_sum1 / M) ** .5
    std2 = (var_sum2 / M) ** .5
    cross_mean = cross_sum / M

    return (cross_mean - mean1 * mean2) / (std1 * std2)

def pearson(x,y):
  n=len(x)
  vals=range(n)

  sumx=sum([float(x[i]) for i in vals])
  sumy=sum([float(y[i]) for i in vals])

  sumxSq=sum([x[i]**2.0 for i in vals])
  sumySq=sum([y[i]**2.0 for i in vals])

  pSum=sum([x[i]*y[i] for i in vals])
  # Calculating Pearson correlation
  num=pSum-(sumx*sumy/n)
  den=((sumxSq-pow(sumx,2)/n)*(sumySq-pow(sumy,2)/n))**.5
  if den==0: return 0
  r=num/den
