    Circulant singular spectrum analysis: a new automated procedure for signal extraction

    Sometimes, it is of interest to single out the fluctuations associated to a given frequency. We propose a new variant of SSA, Circulant SSA (CiSSA), that allows to extract the signal associated to any frequency specified beforehand. This is a novelty when compared with other SSA procedures that need to iden- tify ex-post the frequencies associated to the extracted signals. We prove that CiSSA is asymptotically equivalent to these alternative procedures although with the advantage of avoiding the need of the subse- quent frequency identification. We check its good performance and compare it to alternative SSA methods through several simulations for linear and nonlinear time series. We also prove its validity in the nonsta- tionary case. We apply CiSSA in two different fields to show how it works with real data and find that it behaves successfully in both applications. Finally, we compare the performance of CiSSA with other state of the art techniques used for nonlinear and nonstationary signals with amplitude and frequency varying in time.MINECO/FEDE

    Stable Sparse Orthogonal Factorization of Ill-Conditioned Banded Matrices for Parallel Computing

    Sequential and parallel algorithms based on the LU factorization or the QR factorization have been intensely studied and widely used in the problems of computation with large-scale ill-conditioned banded matrices. Great concerns on existing methods include ill-conditioning, sparsity of factor matrices, computational complexity, and scalability. In this dissertation, we study a sparse orthogonal factorization of a banded matrix motivated by parallel computing. Specifically, we develop a process to factorize a banded matrix as a product of a sparse orthogonal matrix and a sparse matrix which can be transformed to an upper triangular matrix by column permutations. We prove that the proposed process requires low complexity, and it is numerically stable, maintaining similar stability results as the modified Gram-Schmidt process. On this basis, we develop a parallel algorithm for the factorization in a distributed computing environment. Through an analysis of its performance, we show that the communication costs reach the theoretical least upper bounds, while its parallel complexity or speedup approaches the optimal bound. For an ill-conditioned banded system, we construct a sequential solver that breaks it down into small-scale underdetermined systems, which are solved by the proposed factorization with high accuracy. We also implement a parallel solver with strategies to treat the memory issue appearing in extra large-scale linear systems of size over one billion. Numerical experiments confirm the theoretical results derived in this thesis, and demonstrate the superior accuracy and scalability of the proposed solvers for ill-conditioned linear systems, comparing to the most commonly used direct solvers
