Multifractal temporally weighted detrended cross-correlation analysis to quantify power-law cross-correlation and its application to stock markets.

A new method-multifractal temporally weighted detrended cross-correlation analysis (MF-TWXDFA)-is proposed to investigate multifractal cross-correlations in this paper. This new method is based on multifractal temporally weighted detrended fluctuation analysis and multifractal cross-correlation analysis (MFCCA). An innovation of the method is applying geographically weighted regression to estimate local trends in the nonstationary time series.
