Computes the auto-distance covariance function of a univariate time series. It also computes the unbiased estimator of squared auto-distance covariance.
ADCV(x, MaxLag = 15, unbiased = FALSE)
A vector whose length is determined by MaxLag
and contains the biased
estimator of ADCV
or the unbiased estimator of squared ADCV
.
A numeric vector or univariate time series.
The maximum lag order at which to calculate the ADCV
. Default is 15.
A logical value. If unbiased = TRUE, the unbiased estimator of squared auto-distance covariance is returned. Default value is FALSE.
Maria Pitsillou, Michail Tsagris and Konstantinos Fokianos.
Szekely et al. (2007) proposed distance covariance function between two random vectors. Zhou (2012) extended this measure of dependence to a time series framework by calling it auto-distance covariance function.
ADCV
computes the sample auto-distance covariance function,
\(V_X(\cdot)\), between \(\{X_t\}\) and \(\{X_{t+j}\}\). Formal
definition of \(V_X(\cdot)\) can be found in Zhou (2012) and Fokianos and
Pitsillou (2017).
The empirical auto-distance covariance function, \(\hat{V}_X(\cdot)\), is the non-negative square root defined by $$ \hat{V}_X^2(j) = \frac{1}{(n-j)^2}\sum_{r,l=1+j}^{n}{A_{rl}B_{rl}}, \quad 0 \leq j \leq (n-1)$$
and \(\hat{V}_X^2(j) = \hat{V}_X^2(-j)\), for \(-(n-1) \leq j < 0\), where \(A=A_{rl}\) and \(B=B_{rl}\) are Euclidean distances with elements given by $$ A_{rl} = a_{rl} - \bar{a}_{r.} - \bar{a}_{.l} + \bar{a}_{..} $$ with \(a_{rl}=|X_r-X_l|\), \(\bar{a}_{r.}=\Bigl(\sum_{l=1+j}^{n}{a_{rl}}\Bigr)/(n-j)\), \(\bar{a}_{.l}=\Bigl(\sum_{r=1+j}^{n}{a_{rl}}\Bigr)/(n-j)\) , \(\bar{a}_{..}=\Bigl(\sum_{r,l=1+j}^{n}{a_{rl}}\Bigr)/(n-j)^2\). \(B_{rl}\) is given analogously based on \(b_{rl}=|Y_r-Y_l|\), where \(Y_t=X_{t+j}\). \(X_t\) and \(X_{t+j}\) are independent if and only if \(V_X^2(j)=0\). See Fokianos and Pitsillou (2017) for more information on theoretical properties of \(V_X^2(\cdot)\) including consistency.
If unbiased = TRUE, ADCV
returns the unbiased estimator of
squared auto-distance covariance function,
\(\tilde{V}_X^2(j)\), proposed by Szekely and Rizzo (2014).
In the context of time series data, this is given by
$$ \tilde{V}_X^2(j) = \frac{1}{(n-j)(n-j-3)}\sum_{r\neq l}{\tilde{A}_{rl}\tilde{B}_{rl}},
$$
for \(n > 3\), where \(\tilde{A}_{rl}\) is the \((r,l)\)
element of the so-called U-centered matrix
\(\tilde{A}\), defined by $$ \tilde{A}_{rl} = \frac{1}{n-j-2}\sum_{t=1+j}^{n}{a_{rt}}-
\frac{1}{n-j-2}\sum_{s=1+j}^{n}{a_{sl}+\frac{1}{(n-j-1)(n-j-2)}\sum_{t,s=1+j}^{n}{a_{ts}}}, \quad i \neq j,
$$
with zero diagonal.
