liftLRD-package {liftLRD}R Documentation

Wavelet lifting estimators of the Hurst exponent for regularly and irregularly sampled time series

Description

Implementations of Hurst exponent estimators based on the relationship between wavelet lifting scales and wavelet energy

Details

This package exploits a wavelet transform for irregularly spaced data to form wavelet-like scale-based energy measures for a time series. This is then used to estimate the Hurst exponent. The main routine is

liftHurst
