On Surrogate Data Testing for Linearity based on the Periodogram
[article]
1995
arXiv
pre-print
The method of surrogate data is a tool to test whether data were generated by some class of model. Tests based on the periodogram have been proposed to decide if linear systems driven by Gaussian noise could have generated a sample time series. We show that this procedure based on the periodogram, in general, misspecifies the test statistic. Based on the theory of linear systems we suggest an alternative procedure to obtain the correct distribution of the test statistic and discuss problems of this approach.
