Proposes SHGR, a generalized maximal correlation coefficient extending the Hirschfeld–Gebelein–Rényi (HGR) measure to capture nonlinear and multivariate dependencies.

Problem

Traditional correlation measures (Pearson, Spearman) miss nonlinear and multivariate dependencies, and estimating the HGR maximal correlation is difficult.

Approach

Generalizes the HGR maximal correlation, which seeks the highest Pearson correlation achievable via nonlinear transformations of two variables, into a coefficient (SHGR) intended to handle multivariate dependence; the abstract is truncated so the precise estimator is not stated.

Experimental setup

Builds on: HGR maximal correlation
