In tgouhier/synchrony: Methods for Computing Spatial, Temporal, and Spatiotemporal Statistics

Description

Find the proportion of local minima/maxima common to both time series and compute its significance via Monte Carlo randomizations

Usage

peaks (t1, t2, nrands = 0, type = 1, quiet = FALSE)

Arguments

t1	time series 1 in matrix format (n rows x 2 columns). The first column should contain the time steps and the second column should contain the values. If t1 is a column vector instead of a matrix, then it will be automatically converted to a matrix with column 1 corresponding to a time index ranging from 1 to the length of t1
t2	time series 2 in matrix format (n rows x 2 columns). The first column should contain the time steps and the second column should contain the values. If t2 is a column vector instead of a matrix, then it will be automatically converted to matrix with column 1 corresponding to a time index ranging from 1 to the length of t2.
nrands	number of randomizations. Default is 0.
type	Randomization method. The type=1 method randomly shuffles each time series, thus destroying both the autocorrelation structure of each time series and their cross-correlation. The type=2 method shifts each time series by a random amount, thus preserving the autocorrelation structure but destroying the cross-correlation between the time series (Purves and Law 2002). Default is type=1
quiet	Suppress progress bar when set to TRUE. Default is FALSE

Value

Returns a named list containing:

pval	p-value computed by randomly shuffling both time series nrands times
rands	proportion of local minima/maxima common to both time series for each randomization
obs	proportion of local minima/maxima common to both time series in the observed dataset
index	indices of local minima/maxima common to both time series in the observed dataset
