This page collects information on data analysis techniques used in fusion research.
Temporal analysis
Linear analysis
- Correlation analysis
- Fourier analysis
- Wavelet analysis
- Conditional analysis
- Probability distribution, Cumulative distribution function (rank)
Non-linear analysis
- Bicoherence, bispectrum
- Chaos analysis (Strange attractor, Fractal dimension, Mutual information, Lyapunov exponent)
- Hilbert-Huang transform [1][2]
- Causality detection [3]
Self-similarity
- Rescaled range or Hurst analysis; Structure functions
- Waiting times, quiet times [4]
Spatial analysis
Most of the techniques listed under 'temporal analysis' can of course be applied to spatial data.
- Tomography (cf. TJ-II:Tomography)
Spatio-temporal analysis
Image analysis
- Twodimensional Fourier analysis
- Twodimensional wavelet analysis
- Event detection using thresholding
- Optical flow (for movies)
Integrated data analysis
The goal of integrated data analysis is to combine the information from a set of diagnostics providing complementary information in order to recover the best possible reconstruction of the actual state of the system subjected to measurement.
