A spherical correlation coefficient robust against scale
对尺度稳健的球面相关系数
There are several bidirectional situations where it is required to obtain a measure of correlation. The question has been raised often that the bidirectional correlation coefficients so far known are not scale invariant, even asymptotically in the sense that their asymptotic distributions under the hypothesis of independence with von Mises marginals depend upon concentration parameters. Following a conditional approach of Cox (1975), we introduce a new correlation…
