Researchers have developed a new criterion to determine the applicability of training-free time-lagged spectral embeddings for multivariate time series. This criterion, based on stationarity and temporal coupling, predicts whether a descriptor known as D(tau) will perform effectively. The method involves a two-part pre-flight test: an augmented Dickey-Fuller stationarity check and a power-baseline saturation check. The research validates this criterion on various datasets, showing competitive results on those that meet the criteria and predictable failure on those that do not. AI
