<p>I have some trading data in the form of (exchange rate, volume, time) tuples. I'm trying to estimate the rate of change of the exchange rate. Of course the trade data is non-uniformly sampled.</p> <p>Also, the function is rather noisy, so the estimation has to be robust.</p> <p>So what are good ways of estimating the derivative of a noisy, non-uniformly sampled function?</p> <p>Thanks!</p>

<p>What properties do you need to define the average of two members of a set? Does this kind of space have a name?</p>

<p>Let $f$ and $g$ be two discrete signals. I want to find a monotone function h such that</p> <p>$h=argmin_{h}\sum_{n\in[0,N]}{(f(n)-h(g(n)))^2}$</p> <p>I don't really care about finding the global optimum, I just want a good fit. What would be a good representation of f to achieve that? Thanks!</p>

<p>I'm not an expert, but I know that for path planning randomized algorithms are very good, and that good deterministic algorithms are very hard to come by. The advantage being that the path planning problem should be easy to explain to lay people.</p>

<p>I have several temporal signals of different dimensions, for example the motion of a point throughout time which would be of dimension 3, and the value of a temperature sensor, of dimension 1.</p> <p>I would like to find out if these signals are correlated. Is there a measure of correlation that works for signals that do not have the same dimensionality?</p>

@Sridhar Ramesh: I think you pretty much nailed it!

@Andrej Bauer: how can I make it more precise? I'm looking for the properties needed to define an average of to members of a set. For example, a real vector space does have that property, as the average of two vectors is also a vector. Natural integers don't have that property, because the average of 5 and 6 is not an integer. What is the minimal set of properties that is required? Does it have a name?

Thank you for your comments. I will think it over.

Very neat! Thanks a lot.

Sorry about the typo.

Thanks for your answer.
