False positive control in time series coincidence detection
时间序列事件巧合检测中的假阳性控制
We study the problem of coincidence detection in time series data, where we aim to determine whether the appearance of simultaneous or near-simultaneous events in two time series is indicative of some shared underlying signal or synchronicity, or might simply be due to random chance. This problem arises across many applications, such as astrophysics (e.g., detecting astrophysical events such as gravitational waves, with two or more detectors) and neuroscience (e.g.,…
