Multiresolution Diffusion Entropy Analysis of time series: an application to births to teenagers in Texas

Nicola Scafetta, Bruce J. West

The multiresolution diffusion entropy analysis is used to evaluate the stochastic information left in a time series after systematic removal of certain non-stationarities. This met…

An intensity-expansion method to treat non-stationary time series: an application to the distance between prime numbers

Nicola Scafetta, Timothy Imholt, J. A. Roberts +1

We study the fractal properties of the distances between consecutive primes. The distance sequence is found to be well described by a non-stationary exponential probability distrib…

A Trade-Investment Model for Distribution of Wealth

Nicola Scafetta, Bruce J. West, Sergio Picozzi

Econophysics provides a strategy for understanding the potential mechanisms underlying the anomalous distribution of wealth found in real societies. We present a computational nonl…

Solar Flare Intermittency and the Earth's Temperature Anomalies

Nicola Scafetta, Bruce J. West

We argue that earth's short-term temperature anomalies and the solar flare intermittency are linked. The analysis is based upon the study of the scaling of both the spreading and t…

Wavelet analysis of epileptic spikes

Miroslaw Latka, Ziemowit Was, Andrzej Kozik +1

Interictal spikes and sharp waves in human EEG are characteristic signatures of epilepsy. These potentials originate as a result of synchronous, pathological discharge of many neur…

Scaling in Non-stationary Time Series II: Teen Birth Phenomenon

M. Ignaccolo, P. Allegrini, P. Grigolini +2

This paper is devoted to the problem of statistical mechanics raised by the analysis of an issue of sociological interest: the teen birth phenomenon. It is expected that these data…

Scaling in Non-stationary time series I

M. Ignaccolo, P. Allegrini, P. Grigolini +2

Most data processing techniques, applied to biomedical and sociological time series, are only valid for random fluctuations that are stationary in time. Unfortunately, these data a…

Fractal Rigidity in Migraine

Miroslaw Latka, Marta Glaubic-Latka, Dariusz Latka +1

We study the middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity (MCAfv) in humans using transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD). Scaling properties of time series of the axial flow velo…
