 Correlation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The correlation is 1 in the case of an increasing linear relationship, −1 in the case of a decreasing linear relationship, and some value in between in all other cases, indicating the degree of linear dependence between the variables.
However, correlations are not presumed to be acausal, though the causes may not be known.
The correlation coefficient defines completely the dependence structure only in very particular cases, for example when elliptic cumulative distribution functions are used (this case includes for example the multivariate normal distribution).

 Cross Correlation
Cross correlation is a standard method of estimating the degree to which two series are correlated.
The maximum cross correlation for all angles and for each of the two masks is retained for each position.
Note that this is a special case of the expression for calculating the cross correlation using Fourier transforms.

 LAB717 - Correlation Measurements
A major use of cross correlation is the detection of signals buried in noise.
The reference is cross correlated with the waveform in Trace 2, as shown in Trace A. This waveform is further enhanced by averaging in Trace B. The existence and location of the return echo is easily determined in the lower trace, even though it was invisible in the original signal.
The correlation function for each time delay is plotted vs. the time delay to form the correlation function, as shown in Trace A. While averaging can be used to extract a signal from random noise, correlation can detect a signal in the presence of a deterministic signal such as a sinusoid.

 Correlation: cross-correlation and autocorrelation
Cross-correlation is the method which basically underlies implementations of the Fourier transformation: signals of varying frequency and phase are correlated with the input signal, and the degree of correlation in terms of frequency and phase represents the frequency and phase spectrums of the input signal.
A function which is related to the correlation function, but arithmetically less complex, is the average magnitude difference function.
If the signals are identical, then the correlation coefficient is 1; if they are totally different, the correlation coefficient is 0, and if they are identical except that the phase is shifted by exactly

 Research Training Network-Cross Correlation
Fortunately, cross correlation effects may lead to line-narrowing, thanks to the mutual cancellation of relaxation mechanisms.This is the basis of the so-called TROSY effect (transverse relaxation optimized spectroscopy),which may be regarded as another manifestation of cross-correlation effects.The presence of a paramagnetic center leads to many additional interactions and thus also introduces additional cross correlation phenomena.
Therefore cross correlation can provide valuable structural information that is not accessible by other techniques.In particular, cross correlation rates depend on the motional correlation time, and therefore increase with increasing molecular mass.
The objective of this network is a better understanding of cross-correlation effects, the development of the underlying theory and development of new methods to exploit many attractive properties of cross correlation.

 Cross Correlation Rates
Cross correlation effects arise from the interference of relaxation mechanisms, which in paramagnetic molecules can be due to the presence of unpaired electron spin density.
Cross correlation rates were measured for the Ce substituted derivative as well as for the analog diamagnetic derivative CaLaCb.
In the case of isotropic molecular motions and axially isotropic magnetic susceptibility tensors, the cross correlation rate (ccr), expressed in Hertz, due to the interference between Curie spin relaxation and dipolar I-S coupling is given by the following equation, assuming that the molecule is rigid and that the electron spin is localized on the metal:

 Cross-site Correlation of DNS Failures
To test our assumption, we study the correlation of DNS lookup failures across PlanetLab.
From this graph, we can see some minor correlation in failures, shown as downward spikes in the percentage of available nodes, but most of the variation in availability seems largely uncorrelated.
If failure across sites is correlated, this assumption is violated, and a cooperative lookup scheme is less feasible.

 Fast Normalized Cross-Correlation

 GPS Cross Correlation Properties
The cross correlation for sequences A and B. What this is telling you is that if you are looking for satellite A, you won't get it confused with satellite B. More generally, you will have 8-10 satellites being received at a single time.
Note: while the code is a series of 0's and 1's, you use 1's and -1's when computing correlations.
Will you get mixed up while looking for satellite A? We now define 4 PRN sequences A, B, C, D. This is A cross-correlate with B+C+D. This is A cross-correlate with A+B+C+D. This means you will be able to extract signal A even if there are other PRN sequences in the same time series.

 Improved Cross-Correlation Dynamic-Light-Scattering Method
The cross-correlation processing is formulated to exploit the fact that single-scattering speckle arises from inside of the incident laser beam and is correlated over an angular range wider than that of multiple-scattering speckle, which can originate from anywhere within the sample.
The outputs of the photodetectors are cross-correlated in such a way as to make it possible to discriminate against the multiple-scattering contribution to the speckle pattern.

 IDENTIFICATION OF PHASE SHIFT USING CROSS CORRELATION
Theoretical derivation The similarity in the pattern of two time series x and y, each with N data points, can be calculated by using the coefficient of cross correlation rxy(k), where k is a variable that designates a time (or phase) shift of one series with respect to the other (Chatfield, 1984).
In this paper we present an alternative method, which uses the 95% confidence interval of the cross correlation and its corresponding values in the time domain to identify phase shifting in time series data.
The low 95% confidence interval of rxy(m) will identify two other correlation values rxy(m-l) and rxy(m+n), which can then be converted to values in the time domain, m-l and m+n (Figure 1).

The 0.1,0.3 parameters in `cmplxfilt' are quite arbitrary, and the optimum values to use are in fact best determined either by looking at the power spectrum of the data to be filtered, or by consideration of the types of features one wants to emphasise in the determination of the correlation (Hunstead, 1980).

 Hypersignal Block Diagram Function Reference - Support
The Correlate block is used to cross-correlate two input frames of data to produce one output frame of data.
It is important to notice that correlation in general is a time consuming process, and the study of the equation above will reveal the extreme likelihood of the output getting large enough to warrant FLOAT precision; if the correlation yields values in excess of 32767, the INT precision will overflow, yielding incorrect results.
The correlation performed is frame-based, and the implementation formula is as follows: R[d] = SUM(x[i]y[i-d]) where d is the lag (or amount of time shift)

In this paper, we present the results of a cross-correlation between the residual, unresolved X-ray photons in a very deep X-ray survey and the positions of faint galaxies, in order to examine the importance of these objects at even fainter flux levels.
However, the angular form of the correlation is seen to be qualitatively similar to that expected for clusters of galaxies and the X-ray emission could be associated with hot gas in clusters or with QSOs within galaxy clusters rather than emission from individual faint galaxies.
