# Matrix stats aggregation [search-aggregations-matrix-stats-aggregation]
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `matrix_stats` aggregation is a numeric aggregation that computes the following statistics over a set of document fields:
|
|
|
|
`count`
|
|
: Number of per field samples included in the calculation.
|
|
|
|
`mean`
|
|
: The average value for each field.
|
|
|
|
`variance`
|
|
: Per field Measurement for how spread out the samples are from the mean.
|
|
|
|
`skewness`
|
|
: Per field measurement quantifying the asymmetric distribution around the mean.
|
|
|
|
`kurtosis`
|
|
: Per field measurement quantifying the shape of the distribution.
|
|
|
|
`covariance`
|
|
: A matrix that quantitatively describes how changes in one field are associated with another.
|
|
|
|
`correlation`
|
|
: The covariance matrix scaled to a range of -1 to 1, inclusive. Describes the relationship between field distributions.
|
|
|
|
::::{important}
|
|
Unlike other metric aggregations, the `matrix_stats` aggregation does not support scripting.

The following example demonstrates the use of matrix stats to describe the relationship between income and poverty.

|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
GET /_search
|
|
{
|
|
"aggs": {
|
|
"statistics": {
|
|
"matrix_stats": {
|
|
"fields": [ "poverty", "income" ]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The aggregation type is `matrix_stats` and the `fields` setting defines the set of fields (as an array) for computing the statistics. The above request returns the following response:

|
}
|
|
} ]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `doc_count` field indicates the number of documents involved in the computation of the statistics.
|
|
|
|
## Multi Value Fields [_multi_value_fields]
|
|
|
|
The `matrix_stats` aggregation treats each document field as an independent sample. The `mode` parameter controls what array value the aggregation will use for array or multi-valued fields. This parameter can take one of the following:
|
|
|
|
`avg`
|
|
: (default) Use the average of all values.
|
|
|
|
`min`
|
|
: Pick the lowest value.
|
|
|
|
`max`
|
|
: Pick the highest value.
|
|
|
|
`sum`
|
|
: Use the sum of all values.
|
|
|
|
`median`
|
|
: Use the median of all values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Missing Values [_missing_values_3]
|
|
|
|
The `missing` parameter defines how documents that are missing a value should be treated. By default they will be ignored but it is also possible to treat them as if they had a value. This is done by adding a set of fieldname : value mappings to specify default values per field.
|
|
|
|
$$$stats-aggregation-missing-example$$$
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
GET /_search
|
|
{
|
|
"aggs": {
|
|
"matrixstats": {
|
|
"matrix_stats": {
|
|
"fields": [ "poverty", "income" ],
|
|
"missing": { "income": 50000 } <1>
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Documents without a value in the `income` field will have the default value `50000`.
