fathon is only available for Linux (64 bit) and macOS
fathon is a python package for DFA (Detrended Fluctuation Analysis) and related algorithms.
It is mostly written in Cython and C in order to speed up computations.
fathon provides four main algorithms, namely
DFA(Detrended Fluctuation Analysis)MFDFA(Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis)DCCA(Detrended Cross-Correlation Analysis)HT(Time-dependent Hurst exponent)
MFDFA also provides methods for the mass exponent τ and the multifractal spectrum f(α).
DCCA has methods for computing the cross-correlation coefficient ρ_DCCA and the corresponding confidence intervals.
-
Python 3.5 or higher
-
numpy (version >= 1.15)
-
Cython
As easy as pip install fathon
A jupyter notebook can be used (fathon_example.ipynb) to play with the four algorithms provided by the fathon package.
If you cannot use the notebook, four Python scripts are provided, dfa.py, mfdfa.py, dcca.py, and ht.py.
Algorithms are implemented on two time series of gaussian white noise, but you can replace them with any time series you like.

- save object state to binary file and reload it later
- wheels! 🎡🎡
- no more pre-installing step of the GSL library 🎉🎉
- window's sizes array must be now passed to all the methods
logBaseoption for methods that perform fitsverboseoption- pre-computed
hq0can be now passed to thecomputeHTmethod
