Area of Science:

  • Time series analysis
  • Nonlinearity detection
  • Statistical modeling

Background:

  • Surrogate data tests are essential for detecting nonlinearity in time series.
  • Existing methods for generating surrogate data can introduce bias in autocorrelation.

  • To improve the reliability of nonlinearity tests on scalar time series.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the statically transformed autoregressive process (STAP) algorithm.
  • Identification of a normal autoregressive process and a monotonic static transform.
