Haar2MA.horiz {LS2W}

Generate 2-D Haar MA process (horizontal direction).

Description

These functions generate an arbitrary number of observations from a Haar MA process of any order with a particular variance. We will focus here on Haar2MA.horiz — the routine which generates processes having spectral structure solely in the horizonal decomposition direction.

Usage

Haar2MA.horiz(n, sd = 1, order = 5)

Arguments

n

The dimension of the realisation that you want to create. Note that n does NOT have to be a power of two, though it is square (nxn).

sd

The standard deviation of the innovations.

order

The order of the MA process.

Details

A two-dimensional Haar MA process is a special kind of moving-average (MA) field. A horizontal Haar MA process of order $k$ is a MA field of order $2^k-1$, the coefficients of the process being given by the filter coefficients of the two-dimensional, discrete Haar wavelet at various scales within the horizontal direction. For example the horizontal Haar MA field of order 1 is an MA process of order 1. It is possible to define such processes for other wavelets as well.

Value

A matrix containing a realisation of the specified dimension, order and standard deviation.
