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

Time correlations and 1/f behavior in backscattering radar reflectivity measurements from cirrus cloud ice fluctuations
Kristinka Ivanova,Thomas P. Ackerman,Eugene E. Clothiaux,P. Ch. Ivanov,H. E. Stanley,Marcel Ausloos +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied correlations in the fluctuations of radar signals obtained at isodepths of winter and fall cirrus clouds and found that power law time correlations exist with a crossover between regimes at about 3 to 5 min.

Impact of Stock Market Structure on Intertrade Time and Price Dynamics
Ainslie Yuen,Plamen Ch. Ivanov +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the times between consecutive transactions (ITT) for both the NASDAQ and the NYSE stock markets and found that the higher the ITT for NASDAQ stocks, the higher correlations in absolute price returns and by higher volatility, suggesting that market structure may affect price behavior through information contained in transaction timing.

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.

Detecting long-range correlations with detrended fluctuation analysis
TL;DR: It is shown that deviations from scaling which appear at small time scales become stronger in higher orders of detrended fluctuation analysis, and a modified DFA method is suggested to remove them.

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.
