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

Critical fluctuation of wind reversals in convective turbulence.
TL;DR: Detrended fluctuation analysis of the wind reversal time series results in a scaling behavior that agrees remarkably well with that of the Ising problem, and suggests that theWind reversal phenomenon exhibits signs of self-organized criticality.

Association between stride time fractality and gait adaptability during unperturbed and asymmetric walking
Scott W. Ducharme,Joshua J. Liddy,Jeffrey M. Haddad,Michael A. Busa,Laura J. Claxton,Richard E.A. van Emmerik +5 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest there may not be a relationship between unperturbed preferred or slow speed walking fractal dynamics and gait adaptability, but the emergent relationship between asymmetric walking fractals and limb phase adaptation may represent a functional reorganization of the locomotor system to be better suited to attenuate externally generated perturbations at various spatiotemporal scales.

RASS: A Portable Real-time Automatic Sleep Scoring System
TL;DR: RASS accurately scores the sleeping state and detects sleep apnea in real-time based on the sensing results of pulse, blood oxygen, activity, sound and light signals, and the test results show that RASS could achieve higher than 84% accuracy.

Characterising paste extrusion behaviour by signal processing of pressure sensor data
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used wavelet and Bayesian methods for de-noising pressure signal data, which were collected from ram extrusion tests using three materials: a starch-based snack food dough, a detergent and a ceramic paste, and analyzed for measures of outliers, coefficients of variation, the Hurst parameter (a fractal property) and periodic behaviour linked to regular surface fracture.

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.
