> Correlation - do not drop whole row if a target column is NULL
> --------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MADLIB-1166
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-1166

> Current implementation ignores a row that contains NULL entirely. This means
> any correlation in such a row (with NULLs) does not contribute to the final
> answer.
> This improvement is not to drop the whole row if a target column is NULL, but
> rather to do pairwise correlation for any target columns that exist, to make
> most use of the data.
