Correlation Coefficient The covariance can be normalized to produce what is known as the correlation coefficient, ρ. ρ = cov(X,Y) var(X)var(Y) The correlation coefficient is bounded by −1 ≤ ρ ≤ 1. It will have value ρ = 0 when the covariance is zero and value ρ = ±1 when X and Y are perfectly correlated or anti-correlated. Lecture 11 4
