aaft: Amplitude Adjusted Fourier Transform (AAFT)

In season: Seasonal Analysis of Health Data

Amplitude Adjusted Fourier Transform (AAFT)

Description

Generates random linear surrogate data of a time series with the same second-order properties.

Usage

aaft(data, nsur)

Arguments

data	a vector of equally spaced numeric observations (time series).
nsur	the number of surrogates to generate (1 or more).

Details

The AAFT uses phase-scrambling to create a surrogate of the time series that has a similar spectrum (and hence similar second-order statistics). The AAFT is useful for testing for non-linearity in a time series, and is used by nonlintest.

Value

surrogates

a matrix of the nsur surrogates.
