Abstract
The stair-like structure in the correlation integral of measured data is in vestigated. It is shown that the stairs are caused by the limited floating- point accuracy of the data in the measurement, and are completely different from the noise in the measured phenomenon. It is found that a modified sin gular value decomposition filter with very large projection dimension can i mprove the precision of the data and smooth the stairs in the correlation i ntegral.
