In fact the upper bound 1 comes from the general theory introducing the chiral index. It makes sense for distributions of random variables taking values in a more general space. This theory is out of scope of the present discussion, but it is presented in the two web pages that I previously mentioned. | |
| Oct 30, 2015 at 15:15 | comment | added | gung - Reinstate Monica | Wouldn't the correlation, Rm, necessarily be negative? I don't see how CHI could be 1 unless Rm were 1, but since col1 is sorted increasing & col2 is sorted decreasing, RM <=0, meaning CHI would take values in [0, .5]. Am I missing something? | |
