Hypercorrelation: A Concept for System Characterization

Abstract

The concept of "hypercorrelation" is introduced as a method for the statistical characterization of systems. It is shown that there exists a minimal set of hypercorrelation coefficients which uniquely characterizes a system for a given transfer function. The method of hypercorrelation is applied to management models and it is shown that certain useful economic conclusions can be drawn from the analysis. Also, a brief mention is made of its application to the characterization of simple multiport systems.
