Correlation Matrix

















Correlation matrices are designed to take two variables and show the similarity between the two. There 100% similarity in the diagonal line because you are comparing a variable to itself. You must read below and above the diagonal to see how similar variables are to other variables. The rainbow colored key on the right explains the % of similarity, red being very similar and purple being not alike at all. This example is showing the correlation between 'the cluster moments of electrons.'
