partial_correlation_suffstat
(samples, invert=True) → Dict[KT, VT][source]¶ Return the sufficient statistics for partial correlation testing.
Parameters: - samples – (n x p) matrix, where n is the number of samples and p is the number of variables.
- invert – if True, compute the inverse correlation matrix, and normalize it into the partial correlation matrix. This will generally speed up the gauss_ci_test if large conditioning sets are used.
Returns: dictionary of sufficient statistics
Return type: dict
