Null Models & Time Series Analysis

16 January 2013 1 4K Report

Can null models be applied to comparing time series data? If so, please, offer your methods for doing so.

Peter, How about this scenario: I create a mechanistic numerical simulation of a system that results in a particular behavior over time for an important state variable. Can a null model using the output data be used to test the hypothesis that the results represent observed data from the real system? I thereby am not only testing the data with the null hypothesis but can make judgements on the process that generates the data.
