This study introduces a new nonparametric causality test for time series data. It helps compare the influence of different external factors on a system, with applications in physiology and climate science.

Area of Science:

  • Time Series Analysis
  • Causality
  • Nonparametric Statistics

Background:

  • Assessing causality in complex systems is challenging.
  • Understanding the relative influence of external dynamics is crucial for system analysis.
  • Existing methods may not adequately handle weakly dependent time series.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a general nonparametric test for causality in weakly dependent time series.
  • To address the problem of attribution by comparing the relative influence of multiple external dynamics.
  • To demonstrate the broad applicability of the proposed methodology.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel nonparametric causality testing framework.
  • Application to time series data exhibiting weak dependence.
