R help - Apr 2011 - problem with library tseriesChaos

Hi R-Users

I need to estimate Lyapunov exponent of my time series. After reading
description of all functions available I still don't know how to determine
time delay. My time series length is 4200. Is it possible to determine time
delay with other function's output or I can choose any random value?

Thanks for your help!

There are several ways to estimate time delay in chaotic time series
analysis.
Please refer to the book "Nonlinear time series analysis" by Holger
Kantz
and Thomas Shreiber.

For example, time delay is defined as the time when average mutual
information reaches the first local minimum.

Using the package "tseriesChaos", it is estimated as follows:
> library(tseriesChaos)
> x.mu <- mutual(x, plot=FALSE)
> x.mu.d <- diff(x.mu)
> d <- min(which(x.mu.d > 0)) - 1 
The last two can also be simplied.
> d <- which.min(x.mu) - 1
Recently, in Japan, a book has been published on useful packages of R.

I wrote an article on the packages "RTisean" and
"tseriesChaos".
There, I showed an example of estimating the maximum Lyapunov exponent,
using the NH3 laser data.
The source code is available from the following website.

I would be happy to be of any service to you.
