hello, I have been using the per function in package longmemo to obtain a simple raw periodogram. I am considering to switch to the function spec.pgram since I want to be able to do tapering. To compare both I used spec.pgram with the options as suggested in the documentation of per {longmemo} to make them correspond. Now I have found on a variety of examples that there is a shift between

Hello world, I am actually trying to transfer a lecture from Statistica to R and I ran into problems with spectral analysis, I think I just don't get it 8-( (The posting from "FFT, frequs, magnitudes, phases" from 2005 did not enlighten me) As a starter for the students I have a 10year data set of air temperature with daily values and I try to get a periodogram where the annual

Hi everyone, first of all, I would like to say that I am a newbie in R, so I apologize in advance if my questions seem to be too easy for you. Well, I'm looking for periodicity in histograms. I have histograms of certain phenomenons and I'm asking whether a periodicity exists in these data. So, I make a periodogram with the function spec.pgram. For instance, if I have a histogram h, I

Dear R users I have a really simple question (hoping for a really simple answer :-): Having estimated the spectral density of a time series "x" (heart rate data) with: x.pgram <- spectrum(x,method="pgram") I would like to compute the power in a specific energy band. Assuming that frequency(x)=4 (Hz), and that I am interested in the band between f1 and f2, is the

Greetings, I would like to estimate a spectral coherence between two timeseries. The stats : spectrum() returns a coh matrix which estimates coherence (squared). A basic test which from which i expect near-zero coherence: x = rnorm(500) y = rnorm(500) xts = ts(x, frequency = 10) yts = ts(y, frequency = 10) gxy = spectrum( cbind( xts, yts ) ) plot( gxy $ freq, gxy $

Dear list, I've recently become interested in comparing the spectral estimates using the different methods ("pgram" and "ar") in the spectrum() function in the stats package. With many thanks to the authors of these complicated functions, I would like to point out what looks to me like a bit of an inconsistency -- but I would not be surprised if there is good reasoning

Dear list, What on earth is spec.pgram() normalized too? If you would like to skip my proof as to why it's not normed too the mean squared or sum squared amplitude of the discrete function a[], feel free too skip the rest of the message. If it is, but you know why it's not exact in spec.pgram() when it should be, skip the rest of this message. The issue I refer herein refers only too a

Hello! I tried to contact author of the package, but I got no reply. That is why I write it here. This might be useful for those who were using cts for spectral analysis of non-uniformly spaced data. In file spec.ls.R from cts_1.0-1.tar.gz lines 59-60 are written as pgram[k, i, j] <- 0.5 * ((sum(x[1:length(ti)]* cos(2 * pi * freq.temp[k] * (ti - tao))))^2/sum((cos(2 * pi * freq.temp[k] *

Dear colleagues, Can anyone of you tell me how to write a "nabla" symbol in an R graph? Thanks in advance, Nuno ______________________________________________ Centro de Oceanografia - IO-FCUL, Portugal Center for Quantitative Fisheries Ecology - ODU, USA [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I propose two small changes to spec.pgram to get modest speedup when dealing with input (x) having multiple columns. With plot = FALSE, I commonly see ~10-20% speedup, for a two column input matrix and the speedup increases for more columns with a maximum close to 45%. In the function as it currently exists, only the upper right triangle of pgram is necessary and pgram is not returned by

I have done a fair bit of spectral analysis, and hadn't finished collecting my thoughts for a reply, so hadn't replied yet. What exactly do you mean by normalize? I have not used the functons periodogram or spectrum, however from the description for periodogram it appears that it returns the spectral density, which is already normalized by frequency, so you don't have to worry about

Dear R users Is there a function in R to make a peridogram for a spectral analysis of unevenlly sampled data?? something like spec.lomb() for S-Plus?? How to plot a vector with unequally spaced time series?? e.g day/month/year V1 03/08/82 0.34 28/08/82 1.42 12/09/82 0.28 20/09/82 0.56 03/10/82 0.85 21/10/82 1.45 thanks -- Marcelo Alexandre Bruno - Pos-graduacao Oceanografia Biologica

Hi, When I run this code a part of my x-axis and y-axis changes color. Can somebody tell me what is wrong? Also, is there a way to control the color of the average lines? monthplot(AirPassengers+500, ylim=c(min(AirPassengers), max(AirPassengers+500)), ylab="") par(new=T) monthplot(AirPassengers, col="blue", ylim=c(min(AirPassengers), max(AirPassengers+500)),

Dear Prof Ripley, First of all, unless you are an english professor, then I do not think you have any business policing language. I'm still very much a student, both in R, and regarding signal analysis. My competence on the subject as compared too your own level of expertise, or my spelling for that matter, may be a contension for you, but it would have been better had you kept that opinion

Time Series functions in R ========================== I think a good basic S-like functionality for library(ts) in base R would include ts class, tsp, is.ts, as.ts plot methods start end window frequency cycle deltat lag diff aggregate filter spectrum, spec.pgram, spec.taper, cumulative periodogram, spec.ar? ar -- at least univariate by Yule-Walker arima -- sim, filter, mle, diag, forecast

Hello everyone, This is my first time posting to the list, thanks in advance. I am calculating the smoothed periodogram for the residuals of an AR model that I fit to EEG data. The autocorrelation plot of the residuals shows the series is now approximately white (i.e. ACF = 1 at lag 0, and close to 0 for all other lags). I would like to show that the spectrum of the series is also

Hi everyone Can anyone tell me how I normalise a power spectral density (PSD) plot of a periodical time-series. At present I get the graphical output of spectrum VS frequency. What I want to acheive is period VS spectrum? Are these the same things but the x-axis scale needs transformed ? Any help would be greatly appreciated Tom

Dear colleagues, I am new to R and statistics so please keep that in mind. I have doubts on the df calculation of Ljung-Box test (Box.test). The function seems to use always the df=lag=m and not df=m-p-q like suggested in Ljung and Box (1978) paper (that is referenced). Do you agree with this? If so, is there an R package function that computes Ljung-Box test with the degrees of

Hi, I am far from experienced in both R and time series hence the question. The code for spec.pgram() seems to involve a circularity of the kernel (see below) yielding new power estimates to all frequencies computed by FFT. " if (!is.null(kernel)) { for (i in 1:ncol(x)) for (j in 1:ncol(x)) pgram[, i, j] <- kernapply(pgram[, i, j], kernel, circular = TRUE)

Dear useRs, I'd like to plot a confidence interval on a periodogram. My problem is that spec.pgram(sunspots,ci=0.95,log="yes") gives me a blue error bar on the plot, but spec.pgram(sunspots,ci=0.95,log="no") does not. My questions are: 1. how should I plot the confidence interval with log="no"? 2. how should I get the min and max values of the confidence
