StaFIR: Convex Learning of Stationarity-Aware Causal Filters
Excerpt
arXiv:2610.07430v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reducing nonstationarity in a persistent time series entails deciding how much of its temporal dependence to remove. In finance, fractional differencing is often tuned using the Augmented Dickey--Fuller (ADF) test, limiting the search to a one-parameter family of lag profiles and addressing input preservation only indirectly. We propose StaFIR, a causal finite-impulse-response filter with a learned nonnegative mixture of exponential lag profiles. I
