Abstract

We asses the ability of a distance correlation coefficient (DiCC), calculated from distance covariance, for detecting long-range concerted motion in proteins. We establish a set of criteria for ideal correlation coefficient values based on the coefficient of determination in multidimension, R 2 . We compare in detail DiCC and conventional correlation coefficients against these criteria. We demonstrate that, in contrast to conventional correlation coefficients, which capture long-distance correlation adequately only with certain restrictions in multidimension, DiCC reflects appropriate correlation in both one-dimension and multidimensions. Finally, we demonstrate the usefulness of DiCC for assessing long-distance correlated fluctuation in protein dynamics.

  • Distance correlation has theoretical advantages over Pearson's coefficient and has been recently used in biological applications.

    “A more sophisticated measure of association between variables is the distance correlation method [57,58], which has theoretical advantages over Pearson's coefficient and has been recently used in biological applications [59,60].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
