Mk. Patel et Jp. Waterhouse, A FORTRAN PROGRAM FOR THE STATISTICAL-ANALYSIS OF INCOMPLETE TIME-SERIES DATA SETS BY A METHOD OF PARTITION, Computers in biology and medicine, 23(2), 1993, pp. 155-165
A program written in FORTRAN-77 which executes an analysis for periodi
city of a time series data set is presented. Time series analysis now
has applicability and use in a wide range of biomedical studies. The a
nalytical method termed here a method of partition is derived from per
iodogram analysis, but uses the principle of analysis of variance (ANO
VA). It is effective when used on incomplete data sets. An example in
which a data set is made progressively more incomplete by the random r
emoval of values demonstrates this, and a listing of the program and a
sample output in both an abbreviated and a full version are given.
