Python package for non subjectively calculating the correlation dimension from time series data

frappy

frappy (fractal and phase space analysis for python) is a Python package implementing a non subjective algorithm for calculating correlation dimensions from data.

This package currently contains functions for:

• Converting a time series into a uniform deviate through a rank transformation
• Embedding time series into a d-dimensional vector space
• Calculate correlation dimension at different embedding dimensions
• Calculate saturated correlation dimension and minimum embedding dimension using curve fitting
