Compositional segmentation of time series in the financial markets

作者:

Highlights:

• An entropic segmentation algorithm is introduced and applied to the financial series.

• We study the segments from the view of segmentation position and segment length.

• We reveal some important and interesting information hidden in the time series.

• We focus on the intrinsic properties for each segment in the financial time series.

• The results on the time irreversibility and DFA support and verify the segmentation.
