8 Detrending Moving Average Algorithm (DMA) σ 2 DMA n2h The log-log plot is a straight-line whose slope can be used to calculate the Hurst exponent H of the time series.

9 Detrending Moving Average Algorithm (DMA) Self-similarity of a time series x(t) σdma 2 is generalized variance for nonstationary signals. It can be derived from the auto-correlation function C xx (t, τ), which measures the self-similarity of a signal: σ xx (t, τ) [x(t) x(t)][x (t + τ) x (t + τ)] By taking τ = 0 and x = x(t), x n (i) = 1 n n k=0 x(i k) the autocovariance C xx (t, τ) reduces to the function σdma S. Arianos and A. Carbone Physica A 382, 9 (2007)

13 Cross-Similarity of two stochastic series x(t) and y(t) In many cases, the coupling between two systems (time series) might be of interest. A measure of cross-correlation can be implemented 5 by defining: σ xy (t, τ) [x(t) x(t)][y (t + τ) ỹ (t + τ)] Now it must be τ 0. Moreover x = x(t) and y = y(t) x n (i) = 1 n n k=0 x(i k) and ỹ n(i) = 1 n n k=0 y(i k). 5 S. Arianos and A.Carbone, J. Stat. Mech.: Theory and Experiment P03037, (2009).

14 Cross-Similarity of return and volatility σ 2 DMA nh 1+H 2 The log-log plot is a straight-line. The slope is given by the sum of the Hurst exponents H 1 and H 2 of the two time series. 6 6 S. Arianos and A.Carbone, J. Stat. Mech: Theory and Experiment P03037, (2009).
