What is lag in cross-correlation?
The lag refers to how far the series are offset, and its sign determines which series is shifted. Note that as the lag increases, the number of possible matches decreases because the series “hang out” at the ends and do not overlap.
How do you interpret cross-correlation?
Understanding Cross-Correlation
Cross-correlation is generally used when measuring information between two different time series. The possible range for the correlation coefficient of the time series data is from -1.0 to +1.0. The closer the cross-correlation value is to 1, the more closely the sets are identical.
What does negative cross-correlation mean?
A negative correlation describes the extent to which two variables move in opposite directions. For example, for two variables, X and Y, an increase in X is associated with a decrease in Y. A negative correlation coefficient is also referred to as an inverse correlation.
What is cross-correlation formula?
Cross-correlation between Xi and Xj is defined by the ratio of covariance to root-mean variance, ρ i , j = γ i , j σ i 2 σ j 2 . Sample covariance is found from. γ ^ i , j = 1 N ∑ t = 1 N [ ( X i t − X ¯ i ) ( X j t − X ¯ j ) ] . Similarly, sample cross-correlation is defined by the ratio.
