Moment Correction Correlation

Description

MCC is a method which can measure association between rows of a matrix with a single response vector. The method uses a parametric approximation to permutation of the correlation coefficient. It is very accurate, often to p-values of 10^{-8} or smaller.

Details

Please prepare a matrix format of the data, with each row representing the feature and each column for each sample. Please also prepare the clinical response/phenotype in a vector format.
