Covariance vs Correlation Matrix
Overview
Covariance direction of the linear relationship between variables.
Correlation measure of the strength and direction of a linear relationship.
Correlation values are standardized whereas, covariance values are not.
Covariance Matrix
Check covariance definition.
Focusing on the two-dimensional case, the covariance matrix for two dimensions (or and variables) is given by:
Correlation Matrix
Unlike covariance, the correlation has an upper and lower cap on a range .
The correlation coefficient of two variables could be get by dividing the covariance of these variables by the product of the standard deviations of the same values.
