別盲目使用相關係數
df['x'].corr(df['y'])
0.081094
一定要視覺化資料

msleep['bodywt'].corr(msleep['awake'])
0.3119801

msleep['log_bodywt'] = np.log(msleep['bodywt'])sns.lmplot(x='log_bodywt', y='awake', data=msleep, ci=None) plt.show()
msleep['log_bodywt'].corr(msleep['awake'])
0.5687943

log(x))sqrt(x))倒數轉換(1 / x)
也可組合,例如:
log(x) 與 log(y)sqrt(x) 與 1 / y 「x 與 y 相關」不代表「x 導致 y」
