Currently, correlation estimate on a dataset does not return any variance estimate. A reasonable estimate can be obtained with:
@Override
public double getMikroVariance() {
// Reference: ESTIMATION OF SAMPLING VARIANCE OF CORRELATIONS IN META‐ANALYSIS, equation 1.
// https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1744-6570.2001.tb00223.x
// Available from: http://www.hermanaguinis.com/PP2001.pdf
// Limitations: This estimate assumes that label and plabel follow a bivariate normal distribution.
// Also, this estimate is optimistically biased when the count of samples is below 100.
double r2 = Math.pow(getMikroAverage(), 2);
return Math.pow(1 - r2, 2) / (exampleCount - 1);
}
