Models
Stochastic process that exhibit long-range dependence are often represented by starting from models that have been devised to be either exactly self similar (a self-similar process), or approximately so. Additional components of dependence can then be added in the same way that short-term dependence models are derived from independence or white noise. Among stochastic models that can be used for long-range dependence behaviour are autoregressive fractionally integrated moving average models, which are defined for discrete-time processes, while continuous-time models might start from fractional Brownian motion.

Famous quotes containing the word models:
“Friends broaden our horizons. They serve as new models with whom we can identify. They allow us to be ourselves—and accept us that way. They enhance our self-esteem because they think we’re okay, because we matter to them. And because they matter to us—for various reasons, at various levels of intensity—they enrich the quality of our emotional life.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
“French rhetorical models are too narrow for the English tradition. Most pernicious of French imports is the notion that there is no person behind a text. Is there anything more affected, aggressive, and relentlessly concrete than a Parisan intellectual behind his/her turgid text? The Parisian is a provincial when he pretends to speak for the universe.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“... your problem is your role models were models.”
—Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
