皮尔逊相关度评价：

Note3 :《集体智慧编程》用户相似度计算-LMLPHP

Mick Lasalle为《Superman》评了3分，而Gene Seyour则评了5分，所以该影片被定位中图中的(3,5)处。在图中还可以看到一条直线。

皮尔逊相关系数是判断两组数据与某一直线拟合程度的一种度量。

通常情况下：

相关系数0.8-1.0为极强相关

0.6-0.8为强相关

0.4-0.6为中等程度相关

0.2-0.4为弱相关

0.0-0.2为极弱相关或无相关

最佳拟合线：尽可能地靠近图上的所有坐标点。

修正“夸大分值”情况。

皮尔逊积差系数：

　　数学特征：

　　　　　其中，E是数学期望，cov表示协方差。

　　　　　因为μX = E(X)，σX = E(X) − E(X)，同样地，对于Y，可以写成

　　当两个变量的标准差都不为零，相关系数才有定义。从柯西—施瓦茨不等式可知，相关系数不超过1. 当两个变量的线性关系增强时，相关系数趋于1或-1。当一个变量增加而另一变量也增加时，相关系数大于0。当一个变量的增加而另一变量减少时，相关系数小于0。当两个变量独立时，相关系数为0.但反之并不成立。这是因为相关系数仅仅反映了两个变量之间是否线性相关。比如说，X是区间［－１，１］上的一个均匀分布的随机变量。Y = X. 那么Y是完全由X确定。因此Y 和X是不独立的。但是相关系数为0。或者说他们是不相关的。当Y 和X服从联合正态分布时，其相互独立和不相关是等价的。

　　假设有两个变量X、Y，那么两变量间的皮尔逊相关系数可通过以下公式计算：

　　公式一： Note3 :《集体智慧编程》用户相似度计算-LMLPHP

　　公式二： Note3 :《集体智慧编程》用户相似度计算-LMLPHP

　　公式三： Note3 :《集体智慧编程》用户相似度计算-LMLPHP

　　公式四： Note3 :《集体智慧编程》用户相似度计算-LMLPHP

　　以上列出的四个公式等价，其中E是数学期望，cov表示协方差，N表示变量取值的个数。
