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:
“Grandparents can be role models about areas that may not be significant to young children directly but that can teach them about patience and courage when we are ill, or handicapped by problems of aging. Our attitudes toward retirement, marriage, recreation, even our feelings about death and dying may make much more of an impression than we realize.”
—Eda Le Shan (20th century)
“... your problem is your role models were models.”
—Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
“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)
