lmACF: ACF, PACF, and ACVF for various stochastic fractal time...

In fractal: A Fractal Time Series Modeling and Analysis Package

Description

Computes the autocovariance, autocorrelation or partial autocorrelation sequences for various stochastic fractal time series models.

Usage

lmACF(x, lag.max=32, type="correlation")

Arguments

x	an object of class "lmModel". Use the lmModel function to create this input.
lag.max	the maximum number of lags at which to compute the autocovariance, the autocorrelation or the partial autocorrelation. Default: 32.
type	a character string defining the output type based on the following options: "covariance" autocovariance sequence "correlation" autocorrelation sequence "partial" partial autocorrelation sequence Default: "correlation".

Details

The autocovariance sequence is computed using Equation (2.10) of Beran (1994). The autocorrelation sequence is computed by dividing the autocovariance sequence by the variance of the process (i.e., the value of the autocovariance sequence at lag zero). The partial autocorrelation sequence is computed using the Levinson-Durbin recursions.

Value

an object of class signalSeries containing the result.
