两个特征矩阵的有效成对相关

Question

在Python中,我需要找到矩阵中A所有要素与矩阵中所有要素之间的成对相关性B.特别是,我在寻找,在一个给定的特征最强的Pearson相关有意思A具有横跨所有功能B.我不关心最强的相关性是正面还是负面.

我在下面使用了两个循环和scipy完成了一个低效的实现.但是,我想使用np.corrcoef或其他类似的方法来有效地计算它.Matrix的A形状为40000x400,B形状为40000x1440.我有效地尝试这种方法可以在下面看作方法find_max_absolute_corr(A,B).但是,它失败并出现以下错误:

ValueError: all the input array dimensions except for the concatenation axis must match exactly.

import numpy as np
from scipy.stats import pearsonr


def find_max_absolute_corr(A, B):
    """ Finds for each feature in `A` the highest Pearson
        correlation across all features in `B`. """

    max_corr_A = np.zeros((A.shape[1]))    

    for A_col in range(A.shape[1]):
        print "Calculating {}/{}.".format(A_col+1, A.shape[1])

        metric = A[:,A_col]
        pearson = np.corrcoef(B, metric, rowvar=0)

        # takes negative correlations into account as well
        min_p = min(pearson)
        max_p = max(pearson)
        max_corr_A[A_col] = max_absolute(min_p, max_p)

    return max_corr_A


def max_absolute(min_p, max_p):
    if np.isnan(min_p) or np.isnan(max_p):
        raise ValueError("NaN correlation.")
    if abs(max_p) > abs(min_p):
        return max_p
    else:
        return min_p

Answer 1

似乎scipy.stats.pearsonr如下Pearson相关系数式这个定义从施加在列方向对A &B-

基于该公式,可以容易地向量化为列的从成对的计算A和B相互独立的.这是一个矢量化解决方案,使用broadcasting-

# Get number of rows in either A or B
N = B.shape[0]

# Store columnw-wise in A and B, as they would be used at few places
sA = A.sum(0)
sB = B.sum(0)

# Basically there are four parts in the formula. We would compute them one-by-one
p1 = N*np.einsum('ij,ik->kj',A,B)
p2 = sA*sB[:,None]
p3 = N*((B**2).sum(0)) - (sB**2)
p4 = N*((A**2).sum(0)) - (sA**2)

# Finally compute Pearson Correlation Coefficient as 2D array 
pcorr = ((p1 - p2)/np.sqrt(p4*p3[:,None]))

# Get the element corresponding to absolute argmax along the columns 
out = pcorr[np.nanargmax(np.abs(pcorr),axis=0),np.arange(pcorr.shape[1])]

       [ 13.  ,   7.58,   8.74,  12.74],
       [  9.  ,   8.81,   8.77,   7.11],
       [ 11.  ,   8.33,   9.26,   7.81]])

    ...: for A_col in range(A.shape[1]): 
    ...:     high_corr = 0
    ...:     for B_col in range(B.shape[1]):
    ...:         corr,_ = pearsonr(A[:,A_col], B[:,B_col])
    ...:         high_corr = max_absolute(high_corr, corr)
    ...:     high_corr_out[A_col] = high_corr
    ...:     

In [15]: high_corr_out
Out[15]: array([ 0.8067843 ,  0.95678152,  0.74016181, -0.85127779])

3)建议的代码运行 -

In [16]: N = B.shape[0]
    ...: sA = A.sum(0)
    ...: sB = B.sum(0)
    ...: p1 = N*np.einsum('ij,ik->kj',A,B)

    ...: p4 = N*((A**2).sum(0)) - (sA**2)
    ...: pcorr = ((p1 - p2)/np.sqrt(p4*p3[:,None]))
    ...: out = pcorr[np.nanargmax(np.abs(pcorr),axis=0),np.arange(pcorr.shape[1])]
    ...: 

In [17]: pcorr # Pearson Correlation Coefficient array
Out[17]: 
array([[ 0.41895565, -0.5910935 , -0.40465987,  0.5818286 ],

Out[18]: array([ 0.8067843 ,  0.95678152,  0.74016181, -0.85127779])

运行时测试 -

In [36]: A = np.random.rand(4000,40)

In [37]: B = np.random.rand(4000,144)

In [38]: np.allclose(org_app(A,B),proposed_app(A,B))
Out[38]: True

In [39]: %timeit org_app(A,B) # Original approach
1 loops, best of 3: 1.35 s per loop

In [40]: %timeit proposed_app(A,B) # Proposed vectorized approach
