摘要
Renyi (1959) defined the maximal correlation rho between a pair of random variables (U, W) as sup {cov (f(U),g(W))/ square-root V(f(U))V(g(W)):V(f(U)) > 0, V(g(W)) > 0}, where the supremum is taken over all functions of U and W with finite second moments. In this paper we derive the asymptotic distribution of the estimate of the Renyi correlation coefficient based on a sample of independent observations under the assumption that (U, W) are independent and assume only a finite number of values.
