因果关系和相关关系 大数据

Let’s jump into it right away.

让我们马上进入。

相关性 (Correlation)

Correlation means relationship and association to another variable. For example, a movement in one variable associates with the movement in another variable. For example, ice-cream sales go up as the weather turns hot.

关联是指与另一个变量的关系和关联。 例如，一个变量的运动与另一变量的运动相关。 例如，随着天气变热，冰淇淋销售量上升。

A positive correlation means, the movement is in the same direction (left plot); negative correlation means that variables move in opposite direction (middle plot). The farther right plot is when there no correlation between the variables.

正相关表示运动方向相同(左图)； 负相关表示变量沿相反方向移动(中间图)。 最右边的图是变量之间没有相关性时。

因果关系 (Causation)

Causation means that one variable causes another to change, which means one variable is dependent on the other. It is also called cause and effect. One example would be as weather gets hot, people experience more sunburns. In this case, the weather caused an effect which is sunburn.

因果关系意味着一个变量导致另一个变量改变，这意味着一个变量依赖于另一个变量。 也称为因果关系。 一个例子是随着天气变热，人们遭受更多的晒伤。 在这种情况下，天气会导致晒伤。
