Dear all, given two numeric vectors x and y, the ACF(x) at lag k is cor(x(t),x(t+k)) while the CCF(x,y) at lag k is cor(x(t),y(t-k)). See below for a simple example. > set.seed(1) > x <- rnorm(10) > y <- rnorm(10) > x [1] -0.6264538 0.1836433 -0.8356286 1.5952808 0.3295078 -0.8204684 0.4874291 0.7383247 0.5757814 -0.3053884 > y [1] 1.51178117 0.38984324

Hi all, I am getting different results from ccf and cor, Here is a simple example: set.seed(100) N <- 100 x1 <- sample(N) x2 <- x1 + rnorm(N,0,5) ccf(x1,x2)$acf[ccf(x1,x2)$lag == -1] cor(x1[-N], x2[-1]) Results: > ccf(x1,x2)$acf[ccf(x1,x2)$lag == -1] [1] -0.128027 > cor(x1[-N], x2[-1]) [1] -0.1301427 Thanks, Tal ----------------Contact

Hi, I have missing values in my time series. "na.action = na.pass" works for acf and pacf. Why do I get the following error for the ccf? > ts(matrix(c(dev$u[1:10],dev$q[1:10]),ncol=2),start=1,freq=1) Time Series: Start = 1 End = 10 Frequency = 1 Series 1 Series 2 1 68.00000 138.4615 2 70.00000 355.5556 3 68.76000 304.3200 4 68.00000 231.4286 5 69.74194 357.4963 6

im using R 1.5.0 on redhat. when i use ccf in the ts library i get, what i think is, an incorrect entry in the lag and acf components. as an example, look at the second entry in the lag and acf components below: > library(ts) > tmp <- ccf(ts(rnorm(3)),ts(rnorm(3)),plot=F) > tmp$lag , , 1 [,1] [1,] -1 [2,] 0 [3,] 0 [4,] 1 > tmp$acf , , 1 [,1] [1,]

I am trying to run a cross-correlation using the "ccf()" function. When I select plot = TRUE in the ccf() I get a graph which has ACF on the y-axis, which would suggest that these y-values are the auto-correlation values. How should I adjust the code to produce a plot that provides the cross-correlation values? Here is my code: w002dat <-

Dear All, I am studying some process measurement time series in R and trying to identify time delays using cross-correlation function ccf. The results have however been bit confusing. I found a couple of years old message about this issue but unfortunately wasn't able to find it again for a reference. For example, an obvious time shift is observed between the measurements y1 and y2 when the

Hi, I have been running the ccf() function to find cross-correlations of time series across various lags. When I give the option of plot=TRUE, I get a plot that gives me 95% confidence interval cut-offs (based on sample covariances) for my cross-correlations at each lag. This gives me a sense of whether my cross-correlations are statistically significant or not. However, I am unable to get R to

There are two problems: (i) the error message is wrong since lag.max is

I ran across this problem when playing with ccf(). Its function call is >function (x, y, lag.max = NULL, type = c("correlation", "covariance"), plot = TRUE, na.action = na.fail, ...) Internally, ccf() calls plot(), which digs up plot.acf() whose default style is type='h' . I wanted to pass the argument type='l' to the plotting routine, but of

Hi everyone, When the CCF between two series of observations is plotted in R, a line indicating (presumably) the significance threshold appears across the plot. Does anyone know how this threshold is determined (it is different for each set of series) and how its value can be extracted from R? I've tried saving the CCF into an object and unclassing the object, but there's nothing there to

Hello, I am a very new R user and not a statistician so please excuse any over explanation, I'm just trying to be as clear as possible. I have performed a cross correlation of two time series (my columns) in a single data setusing: ccf(ts(A[rows,columnX]),(A[rows,columnY]), lag=NULL, type="correlation",plot=F) I?am able to get the results (for example): Autocorrelations of

Dear ladies and gentlemen, I would like to calculate autocovarinace and cross-covariance scores 1, 2 and 3 of four classes A, B, C and D. I am using acf and ccf from time sires library. My problem is that I can not separate my data among the classes A, B, C and D. When I calculated acf for Score 1, I got a wrong result. The reason being that instead of using ony 60, 40 and 20, the program

Hello everybody, I am sorry if my questions are too simple or not easily understandable. I’m not a native English speaker and this is my first analysis using this function. I have a problem with a cross correlation function and I would like to understand how I have to perform it in R. I have yearly data of an independent variable (x) from 1982 to 2010, and I also have yearly data of a variable

Hi guys, I'm trying to do the autocovariance of a moving average but it's giving me errors. Here is my code: > w=rnorm(500,0,1) > v=filter(w, sides=2, rep(1/3,3)) > acf(w, lag.max=20) <=that printed out a nice graph. > acf(v, lag.max=20) Error in na.fail.default(as.ts(x)) : missing values in object thanks a lot. -- View this message in context:

hello, i have been using ccf() to look at the correlation between lightning and electrogamnetic data. for the most part it has worked exactly as expected. however, i have come across something that puzzles me a bit: > x <- c(1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0) > y <- c(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) > ccf(x, x, plot = FALSE) Autocorrelations of series 'X', by lag -4 -3 -2 -1 0

Dear R-help, How could a cross-correlation plot be optimized such that the relationship between seasonal time-series can be studied? We are working with strong seasonal time-series and derived a cross-correlation plot to study the relationship between time-series. The seasonal variation however strongly influences the cross-correlation plot and the plot seems to be ?rather? symmetrical (max

Hi! I just installed R on my computer, and I don't manage to run the function acf (autocovariance and autocorrelation function). It says me that this function is unknown. However, the standard functions like cos or read.table are OK. Can someone help me please? Thanks a lot.

Dear Martin Maechler, I came accross your valuable contribution in the domain of statistical computing through Web site. I can't but appreciate your great endeavour. I would be grateful to you if you could kindly suggest me or help me to utilize the free statistical pckage like R with Mannual. I am esepcially interested in Time Series Analysis and plotting of experimental

Hello! I have two questions. First of all, I have a problem dealing with acf (Autocovariance function) and need help. First I defined a time series, x, which is a vector created by x <- ts(rnorm(200)). So I plugged the series directly into the acf function, acf(x) and an error message popped up as: Error in .C("acf", as.double(x), as.integer(sampleT), as.integer(nser), :

Hi everyone, I've got a question concerning the function acf(.) in R for calculating the autocorrelation in my data. I have a table with daily returns of several stocks over time and I would like to calculate the autocorrelation for all the series (not only for one time series). How can I do this? After that I want to apply an autoregressive model based on the estimated lag in the
