Trend detection in control data: optimization and interpretation of Trigg's technique for trend analysis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method for trend detection, Trigg's technique [Oper. Res. Q. 15, 271 (1964)], has been investigated for use in monitoring trends in control data produced by multitest continuous-flow analyzers. Simulated trend data were used to optimize the method. Actual control data were analyzed retrospectively to determine the frequency of trends and the accuracy of several parameters obtained from Trigg's method. The prospective use of the technique has successfully uncovered important trends. Criteria for the interpretation of the Trigg's trend data are suggested and an algorithm for the computer implementation of Trigg's calculations is included.

A sequence of functions (curves) collected over time is called a functional time series. Functional time series analysis is one of the popular research areas in which statistics from such data are frequently observed. The main purpose of the functional time series is to predict and describe random mechanisms that resulted in generating the data. To do so, it is needed to decompose functional ti...

Estimating the gravity anomaly causative bodies boundary can facilitate the gravity field interpretation. In this paper, 2D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is employed as a method to delineate the boundary of the gravity anomaly sources. Hence, the GRACE’ satellite gravity data is decomposed using DWT. DWT decomposites a single approximation coefficients into four distinct components: the appr...
