Sample Variance Covariance Matrix
Sample Variance Covariance Matrix. Suppose x is an n x k matrix holding ordered sets of raw data. Formula, example, and when to use.

In terms of the observation vectors, the sample covariance is = = (.
¯), alternatively, arranging the observation vectors as the columns of a matrix, so that The values along the diagonals of the matrix are simply the variances of each subject. The i th observation in the sample; Covariance matrix is a measure of how much two random variables gets change together.
