Robust Correlation

Robust Correlation is a family of association measures that resist outliers, covering Spearman's rank correlation, Kendall's tau, and the biweight midcorrelation. Drawing on the robust-statistics tradition described by Wilcox (2012) and Shevlyakov & Oja (2016), it measures how strongly two variables move together without being distorted by a few extreme points.
