Hfrombeta {liftLRD} | R Documentation |
Compute Hurst exponent from wavelet scale - energy regression slope
Description
Uses the slope of the relationship between wavelet scale and wavelet energy to compute an estimate of the Hurst exponent
Usage
Hfrombeta(beta, model = c("FBM","FGN","ID"))
Arguments
beta |
The estimated slope of the relationship between wavelet scale and energy. |
model |
The assumed long-range dependence model for the time series under analysis. |
Details
There is a theoretical linear relationship growth in the (log) wavelet energy for increasing wavelet scale. This corresponds to the decay in the autocorrelation of a (long range dependent) time series being analysed, and therefore the Hurst exponent, H. The specific relation to H is dependent to the assumed model; in particular for a Fractional Brownian motion, the relationship between H and the slope is H = abs(beta - 1)/2, whereas for Fractional Gaussian noise or dth order Fractional differenced series, the relationship is H = (beta+1)/2.
Value
H |
The Hurst exponent, computed for a specific beta and underlying model. |
