Effect of trends on detrended fluctuation analysis.
TLDR
It is shown how to use DFA appropriately to minimize the effects of trends, how to recognize if a crossover indicates indeed a transition from one type to a different type of underlying correlation, or if the crossover is due to a trend without any transition in the dynamical properties of the noise.Abstract:
scaling behavior. We find that crossovers result from the competition between the scaling of the noise and the ‘‘apparent’’ scaling of the trend. We study how the characteristics of these crossovers depend on ~i! the slope of the linear trend; ~ii! the amplitude and period of the periodic trend; ~iii! the amplitude and power of the power-law trend, and ~iv! the length as well as the correlation properties of the noise. Surprisingly, we find that the crossovers in the scaling of noisy signals with trends also follow scaling laws—i.e., long-range power-law dependence of the position of the crossover on the parameters of the trends. We show that the DFA result of noise with a trend can be exactly determined by the superposition of the separate results of the DFA on the noise and on the trend, assuming that the noise and the trend are not correlated. If this superposition rule is not followed, this is an indication that the noise and the superposed trend are not independent, so that removing the trend could lead to changes in the correlation properties of the noise. In addition, we show how to use DFA appropriately to minimize the effects of trends, how to recognize if a crossover indicates indeed a transition from one type to a different type of underlying correlation, or if the crossover is due to a trend without any transition in the dynamical properties of the noise.read more

TL;DR: Findings indicated that FuzEn, when exploited in RMSE applications, showed similar behavior to SampEn in long series, but its consistency was better than that of Sampen in short series both over simulations and real data.

Estimation of Scale and Hurst Parameters of Semi-Selfsimilar Processes
TL;DR: In this article, an iterative method for estimating the scale and Hurst index of semi-selfsimilar processes with stationary increments is presented, which is based on some flexible sampling scheme and evaluating sam- ple variance of increments in each scale intervals.

Transforming Gaussian correlations. Applications to generating long-range power-law correlated time series with arbitrary distribution.
TL;DR: This work studies analytically and numerically how the Pearson's correlation of two Gaussian variables changes when the variables are transformed to follow a different destination distribution, and proposes how to generalize standard algorithms producing a Gaussian power-law correlated time series in order to create a synthetic time series with an arbitrary distribution and controlled power- law correlations.

TL;DR: The results show multiaffinity behavior for the height fluctuations at μ<μ_{c} and the multiaFFinity strength is greater for smaller values of the μ exponent, and the results also show that the roughness in each interval acts as W_{loc}(t)≈t^{β_{loc}}.

TL;DR: This work analyzes two classes of controls consisting of patchy nucleotide sequences generated by different algorithms--one without and one with long-range power-law correlations, finding that both types of sequences are quantitatively distinguishable by an alternative fluctuation analysis method.

Quantification of scaling exponents and crossover phenomena in nonstationary heartbeat time series
TL;DR: A new method--detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA)--for quantifying this correlation property in non-stationary physiological time series is described and application of this technique shows evidence for a crossover phenomenon associated with a change in short and long-range scaling exponents.

Estimators for long-range dependence: an empirical study
TL;DR: In this paper, various methods for estimating the self-similarity parameter and/or the intensity of long-range dependence in a time series are available. But some of these methods are more reliable than others.
