Wavelet estimation of a multifractal function
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that multifractal functions, characterized by their wavelet representation can be estimated in the white noise model by a Bayesian estimation method. We give rates of convergence for two different models. Further, we study empirical methods for estimating the hyperparameters of the model, which lead to a fully tractable estimator.

Wavelet leaders and bootstrap for multifractal analysis of images
Multifractal analysis is considered a promising tool for image processing, notably for texture characterization. However, practical operational estimation procedures based on a theoretically well established multifractal analysis are still lacking for image (as opposed to signal) processing. In the present contribution, a wavelet Leader based multifractal analysis, known to be theoretically str...
متن کاملAdaptive wavelet-based multifractal model applied to the effective bandwidth estimation of network traffic flows
The authors investigate effective bandwidth estimation and Quality of Service (QoS) aware bandwidth provisioning for multifractal network traffic flows. They develop a novel adaptive wavelet-based multifractal model (AWMM) by using properties of the wavelet coefficients of multifractal cascade processes. The proposed AWMM has real-time updating capability and proves to be efficient in capturing...

We present a direct method of calculation of the multifractal spectrum from the wavelet decomposition. Information pertinent to singular structures in time series is captured by the WTMM method and the local effective Hölder exponent is evaluated locally for each singular point of the time series. The direct multifractal spectrum is obtained from the scaling of the histograms of the local effec...

متن کاملModelling and control of broadband traffic using multiplicative multifractal cascades
Abstract. We present the results on the modelling and synthesis of broadband traffic processes namely ethernet inter-arrival times using the VVGM (variable variance gaussian multiplier) multiplicative multifractal model. This model is shown to be more appropriate for modelling network traffic which possess time varying scaling/self-similarity and burstiness. The model gives a simple and efficie...
