- Hi,
-
- I want to give a computer assignment for my graduate EE
- stochastics and random variables class on fractal time
- series. Does anyone have a good reference for actually
- generating random fractal time series? I read chaos and
- the capital market. It discusses stable peritian (sp?)
- in regards to its characteristic function but it does
- not state how to generate sequences. Ideally, I would
- like the students to write a program in MATLAB to perform
- this function.
-
- Any hints on references would be most appreciated.
-
- Thanks
-
- Matt
-
- PS: Does anyone know of an expression to compute
- unbiased kurtosis? Any references?
