A Nonparametric Test for Assessing Spectral Peaks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Peaks in the spectrum of a stationary process are indicative of the presence of a periodic phenomenon, such as a seasonal effect or business cycle. This work proposes to measure and test for the presence of such spectral peaks via assessing their aggregate acceleration and velocity. Our method is developed nonparametrically, and thus may be useful in a preliminary analysis of a series. The technique is also useful for detecting the presence of residual seasonality in seasonally adjusted data. The diagnostic is investigated through simulation and two data examples.

Nonparametric Spectral-Spatial Anomaly Detection
Due to abundant spectral information contained in the hyperspectral images, they are suitable data for anomalous targets detection. The use of spatial features in addition to spectral ones can improve the anomaly detection performance. An anomaly detector, called nonparametric spectral-spatial detector (NSSD), is proposed in this work which utilizes the benefits of spatial features and local st...
متن کاملA Spectral Approach for Locally Assessing Time Series Model Misspecification
Peaks in the spectrum of a stationary process are indicative of periodic phenomena, such as seasonality or business cycles. Hence one important aspect of developing parametric models for periodic processes is proper characterization of spectral peaks. By using diagnostics constructed from the average ratio of two spectral densities this work proposes to test whether a hypothesized model is loca...

The present paper introduces the Bayesian spectral analysis as a powerful and efficient method for spectral analysis of photometric time series. For this purpose, Bayesian spectral analysis has programmed in Matlab software for XZ Dra photometric time series which is non-uniform with large gaps and the power spectrum of this analysis has compared with the power spectrum which obtained from the ...
متن کاملSpectral Estimation of Stationary Time Series: Recent Developments
Spectral analysis considers the problem of determining (the art of recovering) the spectral content (i.e., the distribution of power over frequency) of a stationary time series from a finite set of measurements, by means of either nonparametric or parametric techniques. This paper introduces the spectral analysis problem, motivates the definition of power spectral density functions, and reviews...
متن کاملEvaluation of Tests for Separability and Symmetry of Spatio-temporal Covariance Function
In recent years, some investigations have been carried out to examine the assumptions like stationarity, symmetry and separability of spatio-temporal covariance function which would considerably simplify fitting a valid covariance model to the data by parametric and nonparametric methods. In this article, assuming a Gaussian random field, we consider the likelihood ratio separability test, a va...
