Estimating deformations of stationary processes

چکیده
This paper studies classes of nonstationary processes, such as warped processes and frequency-modulated processes, that result from the deformation of stationary processes. Estimating deformations can often provide important information about an underlying physical phenomenon. A computational harmonic analysis viewpoint shows that the deformed autocovariance satisfies a transport equation at small scales, with a velocity proportional to a deformation gradient. We derive an estimator of the deformation from a single realization of the deformed process, with a proof of consistency under appropriate assumptions.

Recursive Interferometric Representations
Classification requires building invariant representations relatively to groups of deformations that preserve signal classes. Recursive interferometry computes invariants with a cascade of complex wavelet transforms and modulus operators. The resulting representation is stable relatively to elastic deformations and provides invariant representations of stationary processes. It maps signals to a...
متن کاملSecond Moment of Queue Size with Stationary Arrival Processes and Arbitrary Queue Discipline
In this paper we consider a queuing system in which the service times of customers are independent and identically distributed random variables, the arrival process is stationary and has the property of orderliness, and the queue discipline is arbitrary. For this queuing system we obtain the steady state second moment of the queue size in terms of the stationary waiting time distribution of a s...
متن کاملThe Rate of Entropy for Gaussian Processes
In this paper, we show that in order to obtain the Tsallis entropy rate for stochastic processes, we can use the limit of conditional entropy, as it was done for the case of Shannon and Renyi entropy rates. Using that we can obtain Tsallis entropy rate for stationary Gaussian processes. Finally, we derive the relation between Renyi, Shannon and Tsallis entropy rates for stationary Gaussian proc...
متن کاملPeriodically correlated and multivariate symmetric stable processes related to periodic and cyclic flows
In this work we introduce and study discrete time periodically correlated stable processes and multivariate stationary stable processes related to periodic and cyclic flows. Our study involves producing a spectral representation and a spectral identification for such processes. We show that the third component of a periodically correlated stable process has a component related to a...
متن کاملSome New Methods for Prediction of Time Series by Wavelets
Extended Abstract. Forecasting is one of the most important purposes of time series analysis. For many years, classical methods were used for this aim. But these methods do not give good performance results for real time series due to non-linearity and non-stationarity of these data sets. On one hand, most of real world time series data display a time-varying second order structure. On th...
