False nearest neighbors (FNN) is one of the essential methods used in estimating the minimally sufficient embedding dimension in delay coordinate embedding of deterministic time series. Its use for stochastic and noisy deterministic time series is problematic and erroneously indicates a finite embedding dimension. Various modifications to the original method have been proposed to mitigate this problem, but those are still not reliable for noisy time series. Nearest neighbor statistics are studied for uncorrelated random time series and contrasted with the deterministic statistics. A new FNN metric is constructed and its performance is evaluated for deterministic, stochastic, and random time series. The results are also contrasted with surrogate data analysis and show that the new metric is robust to noise. It also clearly identifies random time series as not having a finite embedding dimension and provides information about the deterministic part of stochastic processes. The new metric can also be used for differentiating between chaotic and random time series.

False nearest neighbors (FNN) is one of the essential methods used in estimating the minimally sufficient embedding dimension in delay-coordinate embedding of deterministic time series. Its use for stochastic and noisy deterministic time series is problematic and erroneously indicates a finite embedding dimension. Various modifications to the original method have been proposed to mitigate this problem, but those are still not reliable for noisy time series. Here, nearest-neighbor statistics are studied for uncorrelated random time series and contrasted with the corresponding deterministic and stochastic statistics. New composite FNN metrics are constructed and their performance is evaluated for deterministic, correlates stochastic, and white random time series. In addition, noise-contaminated deterministic data analysis shows that these composite FNN metrics are robust to noise. All FNN results are also contrasted with surrogate data analysis to show their robustness. The new metrics clearly identify random time series as not having a finite embedding dimension and provide information about the deterministic part of correlated stochastic processes. These metrics can also be used to differentiate between chaotic and random time series.

A capacity analysis for generally correlated wireless multi-hop multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channels is presented in this paper. The channel at each hop is spatially correlated, the source symbols are mutually correlated, and the additive Gaussian noises are colored. First, by invoking Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition for the optimality of convex programming, we derive the optimal source symbol covariance for the maximum mutual information between the channel input and the channel output when having the full knowledge of channel at the transmitter. Secondly, we formulate the average mutual information maximization problem when having only the channel statistics at the transmitter. Since this problem is almost impossible to be solved analytically, the numerical interior-point-method is employed to obtain the optimal solution. Furthermore, to reduce the computational complexity, an asymptotic closed-form solution is derived by maximizing an upper bound of the objective function. Simulation results show that the average mutual information obtained by the asymptotic design is very closed to that obtained by the optimal design, while saving a huge computational complexity.
