Welcome to memspectrum’s documentation!

memspectrum

Package that uses maximum entropy spectral Analysis to compute the spectrum of a given time-series. The main object is MESA, that is meant to implement Burg Algorithm for the computation of the power spectral density.

For more information, take a look at:

Basic usage (to compute the spectrum of a given time series):

import memspectrum

M = memspectrum.MESA()
M.solve(time_series) #perform the analysis on the given time series (a real/complex np.array)
M.spectrum(dt,f) #evaluate the PSD on the given frequency grid
M.forecast(data, N_tstep) #forecast from the time series

With the proper input, this will produce this nice plot:

If you’re curious, this is the Power Spectral Density of the historical series of temperature measured around the city of Milan (Italy) with 1 hour rate. Data are taken from Copernicus. You can clearly see that the temperatures are very nicely correlated with themselfs on a day timescale. This amounts to a large peak at a frequency of 1 per hour and its multiples.

You can find this and many other examples around this documentation. For some example code, you can check the example folder of this repo.
