Dear time-series specialist: I've got some time series representing measurements from a physical process, like atomic decay data. These time series look almost random, but should hopefully be distinguishable as they were taken under different conditions. I am looking for statistical approaches that are sensitive enough to discriminate between such series of measurements. Preferably, there

Greetings all, I'm working on a project trying to apply fourier analysis to timestamped router logs, using R to perform the analysis. The idea is to determine if any type of traffic (say, outgoing ICMP requests) has strong periodic features because it may indicate a compromise somewhere on the network. The FFT requires all data points to be evenly spaced, but the recorded events do not
