Compute the probability that two functions are correlated at a given spherical harmonic degree for a given correlation coefficient.
Usage
prob = SHConfidence (l, corr)
Returns
- prob : float, ndarray
- Probability that two functions expressed in spherical coefficients with spectral correlation corr are correlated at degree l.
Parameters
- l : integer, array_like
- The spherical harmonic degree.
- corr : float, array_like
- The correlation coefficient of the two data sets at degree l.
Description
SHConfidence will calculate the probability (between 0 and 1) that two sets of spherical harmonic coefficients with spectral correlation corr are linearly correlated at a given degree. This is calculated using equation A7 from Pauer et al. (2006).
