Example sentences for: autocorrelation

How can you use “autocorrelation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • If the correlogram is sinusoidal with peaks and troughs occurring in the circadian range, we accept the signal as rhythmic - even when the autocorrelation function fails to be statistically significant.

  • Although more sophisticated analyses such as autocorrelation and MESA (described below) are required to evaluate rhythmic signals quantitatively, it is often possible to make meaningful qualitative assessments by inspecting a plot of raw data.

  • Note that as the lag between the data series increases, the number of nonoverlapping points increases and the autocorrelation analysis involves a diminishing portion of the signal.

  • Rhythmic variation in this autocorrelation function uncovers periodicity.

  • Such a preparation may indicate whether or not a rhythmic signal is present, as shown in Figure 1. Subsequent criteria are evaluated by means of the autocorrelation function to determine whether a rhythm is present in the data and, if so, whether it is statistically significant.
