Fitting a Nonstationary Model of Ionospheric Motions
Melvin J. Hinich,H. Montes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a non-standard analysis of systematic nonstationarity in data on ionospheric motions is presented, which is applicable to any analysis of ambient back-ground noise in communication systems which use the atmosphere as a medium.

Discrete Fourier Transform Filters as Business Cycle Extraction Tools: An Investigation of Cycle Extraction Properties and Applicability of ‘Gibbs’ Effect
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the ability of an assortment of frequency domain bandpass filters proposed in the economics literature to extract a known periodicity and investigate the implications and complications that may arise from the Gibbs Effect in practical settings that typically confront applied macroeconomists.

A Single-Blind Controlled Competition Among Tests For Nonlinearity And Chaos
William A. Barnett,A. R. Gallant,Melvin J. Hinich,Jochen Jungeilges,Daniel T. Kaplan,Mark J. Jensen +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single-blind controlled competition among five highly regarded tests for nonlinearity or chaos with ten simulated data series was conducted, including linear processes, chaotic recursions, and nonchaotic stochastic processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analyzing several musical instrument tones using the randomly modulated periodicity model
Shlomo Dubnov,Melvin J. Hinich +1 more
TL;DR: The signal coherence of a vibrato, a deliberate modulation of a tone, is analyzed for the first time using the signal-coherence function and it is shown that for most practical playing conditions it has a small effect for lower frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of an Incoherent Finite Signal Using a Number of Sensors
TL;DR: The weak‐signal optimal detection procedure is to compute U, where S(ω) is the observed power spectrum averaged over all the sensors and Δ is the interval between discrete observations, and then to compare U with a threshold.
