Michael Joyce commented on CLIMATE-481:
---------------------------------------

Update, either of the stats functions that were used are fine, they both give 
us the same thing. The one that we're currently using is probably a bit faster 
since it doesn't return 5 different values, but I stuck with the one Kyo was 
using for CLIMATE-483.

> Kyo reported the StdDevRatio and PatternCorr metrics were returning 
> unexpected results. He provided some example code (below) that demonstrated 
> expected values.
> There seems to be a few problems with the current metrics. First, we don't 
> have a version of these that doesn't do some sort of rebin on the data first. 
> That should be changed (in fact, we should probably only have versions that 
> don't rebin the data, but that's a separate conversation perhaps). Second, 
> StdDevRatio currently normalizes to the target, instead of the reference 
> dataset. That's an easy fix. Third, Kyo is using a different stats method to 
> get what he wants. I will play around a bit and see if I can determine which 
> we should use and get it changed.
> {code}
> taylor_data[imodel, 0]=ma.std(model.values)/ma.std(ref_dataset.values)
> taylor_data[imodel, 1]=stats.mstats.linregress(ref_dataset.values, 
> model.values)[2]
> {code}
