spin.covariance: Compute Wavelet Cross-Covariance Between Two Time Series

In waveslim: Basic Wavelet Routines for One-, Two-, and Three-Dimensional Signal Processing

Compute Wavelet Cross-Covariance Between Two Time Series

Description

Computes wavelet cross-covariance or cross-correlation between two time series.

Usage

spin.covariance(x, y, lag.max = NA)

spin.correlation(x, y, lag.max = NA)

Arguments

x	first time series
y	second time series, same length as x
lag.max	maximum lag to compute cross-covariance (correlation)

Details

See references.

Value

List structure holding the wavelet cross-covariances (correlations) according to scale.
