Quantifying Long-Range Dependence in Object-Valued Time Series
对象值时间序列中的长程依赖度量
Object-valued time series, including distributions, covariance matrices, networks, and compositions, lack the linear structure required by conventional autocovariance-based definitions of long memory. We develop an intrinsic framework for defining and estimating long memory in metric spaces of negative type. An isometric embedding yields a centered Hilbert-valued process, and the trace of its lag-covariance operator provides a signed, additive measure of temporal dependence.…
